If time could stop:……1,2……..
How fast would it take for you to come to my side?
…….3…..4……5-----------------------if time had a heart would it beep to its final breath?
Am I willing to finally close the door?
Dear Friend, our time was great together.
But something changed: you and me. Me and you.
Dear past self: Don’t ever give up.
Persevere, walk down the road, so many opportunities are awaiting you.
Dear Future Self: Do I ever change at all?
Have my dreams become a reality?
……………..6…7…8 are we reviving time?
…9…10..11 is it impossible to face a new future? Must we always live in the past?
12, 13, 14, 15: I guess my answer is clear: we can’t move on.
16…17…18: But I have to.
…19…….20…..21: Goodbye is all that is left-thank you for the memories; I’ll hold them dear and close to my heart.
……….22…………………………
