Time Stands Still

by Andrea broken tears   Jul 23, 2013


Watching my life flash before my eyes
Time stands still
It's like I was in slow motion
then someone pressed play
Time stands still
Then it all happened so fast
what a bad day
Time stands still
Then I came home to find you dead
Time stands still
I never got to say goodbye
Time stands still
Just want this day to end
Time stands still

    Liked the repetition in the poem, and how clear it is that time stood so still, how powerful it was that nothing seemed to move on. Frozen in the moment of grief and shock.

    Powerful short poem. Leaves the reader wondering more about the relationship and story between the two people and about the incident that happened.
