time is heartless.
the time ticks away faster than ever when you want it to slow down, when you want to keep the moment. time won't allow that. time will just keep on ticking, it would probably go faster if it could. there are some moments that are truly priceless. moments that are so worth keeping, I bet people would pay to freeze in that moment, if such a thing was possible. love is like that too. the years tick by like minutes, and before you know it, your other half is lying in a hospital bed, the beeping of heart monitors off in the distance, but the sound of flatlining is your only companion. they're gone. you're just left there standing, thinking of the time you were both innocent 20 year-olds, still learning how the world works.
I bet you would pay to live a moment over and over again, no matter if that moment is a day, week, or year, I guarantee you have a few priceless moments.
