New York City there's no place like home.
Let’s stop Time for a moment Why always rush? Reality is a torment Listen to the hush Of complete silence If you listen closely There is always a difference In the way something sounds The way the air feels There is so much that The outside world conceals Why must we be Always keen to go To the next place, why don’t we Ever take things slow? Why don’t we Take time off the frets Savour the little moments We’d otherwise forget? And have you Just skimmed through these words? No time to read aloud You don’t want to be heard Isn’t it just A part of your mind? A system forbidding you To slow or rewind You’ll always skip through Let the words blur your sight And you would continue To read it all quickly No matter How detached Are these Words That I Write.
