New worlds pass before my eyes,
what kind of paradise lies before me?
So full of light, yet there is dark.
I see so many blurs in the speed of
how one takes to change their minds.
Little boys and girls crying,
wives running to husbands thought dead,
families on picnics, and
the world's latest updates.
People doing daily chores,
as the world crumbles beneath,
and I all I can see is the
happy expressions on their faces.
To be together in this life...

I know what you mean. Wouldn't it be nice to have that one moment just last for another moment? *sighs* Thank you for you wonderful comment!
