Father Time
What have you done?
What happened to you?
You used to always be with me
I thought you'd never leave
What happened?
You're so closed off now
You take and take
But hardly ever give
I've been patient and generous
Can't you do the same?
I often try and stop to smell all the flowers
I pause to enjoy the scenery for a bit
Can't you do that too?
Like you used to?
Why do you have to move so fast
Nothing can be enjoyed or cherished that way
Don't you want to feel the world around you
Don't you want to sit on the beach and watch the sun set
And marvel at all the colors in the world
Aren't you sick of the blur?
Aren't you exhausted?
Take a break from running
slow down
Take a walk
Rest
You'll thank me later
