To Stop Time
Mon ,02/11/2009
It’s been a long time since I’ve written here. It’s not that I’ve been too busy, it’s not that I didn’t want to, it’s just that I’m not as good at this as the rest of the writers on this site.
Todays topic comes from the thoughts that dance in my head just before I drift off to sleep. This one came to me three days ago.
If there was a way to stop time, would you? Would it be wise? What would you stop time for?
I would stop time for two things. Concerts and a lover.
The lover might be more understandable and accepted, so I’ll start there.
Laying in bed with the sunlight streaming in your window on a Sunday morning after a long night of lovemaking… Tell me you don’t want to stop time?
…If it were only so easy to stop time or bottle it… To sell it would be more precious than gold.
The concerts? When I’m at a concert and I look up into the lights (usually when they’re blue) I want to stop time, embrace and memorize the situation and never leave. It’s those moments that make me miss performing so much.
So what would you stop time for? If you could. How long before you would start it back up again? If ever.
