TIME

The world

Spins around you

Passing your needy hands

That are begging for it to stop.

While unable to soak in

That year

That time

That moment

Because you don't have the power to slow it down.

Green summer trees

And sticky fruit popsicles

Pass and

Soon turn into

Maple leafs

And tinfoiled candies

With the glow of flickering candles

Inside carved prizes.

The rain begins to fall

into the wanted, but never there

Snow

And your breath can be seen

On quiet mornings while

The brisk air is clinging to your cheeks

And stinging your eyes.
