Standing Still

Summary:
This is a prompt I gave myself.

What would happen if time stood still

Would a tear still drop

Would the heart still beat

Would that moment still be etched in memory

Words can never be taken back

When both cheeks are slapped there is no other to give

Wounds that are soul deep are hard to repair

Why forgive to be hurt again

Wouldn’t it be simpler to just go on with life

Whether it be now or later we all come to terms with the truth

What could happen if time stood still

    3. To me, time as a gift. None of us knows, how long their lives will last. I think, it is most important to use the gift of time we receive to find out who we are, why we are here and how to live a life in harmony and at peace with ourselves and all of creation.
      A well written and meaningful poem, dear Fia!
