13 Moving Through Life. Chapter Thirteen: Time

I don't think I'm the only one who believes this, time leaves more quickly than I've ever seen,

It almost doesn't feel real, like a dream.

I seem awake but not completely, the hours escape me too discretely.

I wish at times, it would go slower, some, it would go faster; I should've known nothing lasts.

This morning, while I was still in bed, Time came, stood beside it, he looked at me and said: "Your eyes say it all."

I shook my head instead and replied: "What?"

He pulled back the covers on the bed, and went on: "The sun is up, and you're still reclining, rely on what you have here at home. Don't move too fast, don't be too slow, you know you're blessed with a loving family. Rise up and greet them, seat yourself among them and enjoy. For I'm moving through at a quick speed, lead well with me what you have."

Taking to heart his words and nodding my head, he held his hand, outstretched towards me.

He led me up out of bed and smiled, then was gone.

Life is short, time is fleeting, at a quick moment, the heart ceases beating.

Do you recall the days we had? Watching tv and eating dinner together, laughing and talking about our day? Remember we would always say that we loved each other, and would be supportive throughout our days?

We played video games as siblings, these were of living, my precious times.

The arguments we used to have were mostly silly, childish and irrelevant; The laughs shared, were much more relevant.

We played many a prank, among the first rank was when you all would hide, then jump out and surprise me; Inside it makes me feel happy, because in your eyes, I am a beloved sister, a listener and of importance.

I know I've had moments when I didn't regard you like I should have, I want to play and smile much more a while, here at home with you.
