For Things To Stay Still Poem by Marcellus Watts

Time waits for no one
every time person should know this
Time walks constantly
Never stopping and always moving on
Leaving those behind who can't keep up
As the seconds grow into minutes
Grow into hours then days
Life blooms then blossoms
Quicker then we can enjoy
as life and time allows things to die
much faster than it grows
Things move on in time
Attempting to keep up with ever growing life
Treasures are never enjoyed
to the fullest
Life's blessings are over looked
In the struggle to keep up
with the eternal flow of time
Things never stand still
Things never stop
Time doesn't pause
Life doesn't halt
Earth never changes its revolution
Things don't stand still
why can't they?
Why can't we enjoy every possibility?
But only time itself is able to
What it would take for things to stand still?
For our lives to stay still?
For us to be happy?
What a cruel and selfish thing time is…
