Introspective: Time

Reminiscing takes a lot of time. Mostly because we keep wishing that we could go back in time.

Hey, can I take a time out? Time has been running too fast for me to catch my breath. Let me lean back a little bit. Let me breathe in and out without having to worry about catching up, or growing old. Let me make a mistake and have time to fix it. Let me be confused and have time to think about it for a bit. Let me be in love and have time to appreciate it. Let me be out of love and have time to heal. Let me watch a movie without having two hours go by.

Is it me, or do people stop caring about their birthdays and age when they turn 20? Seems like birthdays and age don’t really matter anymore. Back in the days, when you turn 15 or 16, it was a big deal. I was very excited in becoming older. When you’re 18 or 19 or 20. you stop caring, or care less.

Hey, can I take a time out? Let me sit and not worry about changing or changes. Let me stare at the stars and clouds for a bit longer. Let me feel every emotion religiously or at least, passionately. Let me find someone to love, hate, and love again.

Is it me, or do people take advantage of a lot of things? We don’t learn from our mistakes as much as we hope to. When we have too much to be thankful for, we struggle to juggle; to appreciate. If time stopped solely to let us think and cherish, would we change, or would we take advantage of it too?

Hey, can I take a time out? Just please, let me breathe for a bit. I know I waste a lot of time doing nothing and gaming, but maybe, I just need more time.
