CHRONOS

Stop the tides from turning,

stop the flowers from blossoming,

stop the sun from shining,

Stop it all.

 

Give me this moment,

let me feel it,

let me love it.

Let me hold it in my arms forever,

let me keep it in a chokehold,

let me mercilessly strangle the joy out of it's still breathing lungs.

Let my eyes see forever the beauty,

I want to capture this feeling forever.

 

But time is fast.

Time is an elusive beast that stops for no man,

an emotionless, limitless, all powerful God,

that unravels destinies and heals all wounds.

Time cannot be conquered.

 

Well I guess I could just take a picture...
