So Much Time

February 22, 2018

I'm scared that there's so much time and not enough all in one second.

Time is so many things in one.

It can be short, like a sweet kiss,

or long like a painful stomach ache.

Time can hurt, physically or emotionally.

Time can smell like your grandmothers favorite perfume.

Time can be the taste of a cassarole that your mother made.

Time gives people a purpose, a drive.

Time can drive people into a dark hole of insanity.

there's so much time and not enough all in one second,

that a person who cannot count the hours will never know the value of a single second.

There's so much time...
