Time Stood Still

The birds stopped chirping.

The sun stopped rising.

The trees stopped growing.

The cars stopped moving.

And time stood still.

My heart kept slowing.

My tears kept rolling.

My nose kept running.

My skin kept paleing. 

And time stood still.

Faces started passing.

People started talking.

Bells started ringing.

Feet started moving.

And time moved on.

And I, I moved on.

Very good poem!
Time has a way of taking time.

time is indeed the hardest thing to fight with, so better to learn the art of letting go :)
