if i could slow down time

this is another poem that i wrote. just like the other1 its not perfect but it shows my thoughts and who i am. i hope you like it and feel the same way as i felt when i wrote it. when life gets bad just remember that there is some1 out there struggling along with you.



everyone is running
running all around
a little girl sits quietly
she doesn't make a sound

no one will stop running
their wasting precious time
she whispers to me softly
this should be a crime

she said

maybe things would be different
if i could slow down time
maybe daddy wouldn't drink
and Mommy wouldn't hide

maybe i could have a friend
that wouldn't make me cry
maybe my little brother
wouldn't have to die

and maybe my big sister
wouldn't drive so fast
and this past thanksgiving dinner
wouldn't be her last

i wish that i could change the world
with a miracle from above
i wish that maybe someone
could share with me their love

this story never happened
but it really makes me think
every little voice
should have their chance to speak

if we all would take our time
and listen to the world
maybe we could make a difference
for every boy and girl
