Blink of an eye
Snap of a finger
Everything can change
Before you can say
"Sub-second"

Peace has been restored
Love has been formed
Life has been created
In less time

Wars have been started
Hearts have been broken
Lives have slipped away
Even faster

Every wink, blush, smile and tear
Are all caused
By reactions with speed
Approaching mach one

My world has been blown to pieces
Put back together
And shattered again
In a blink of an eye

It takes less time
Than the snap of a finger
To change the world

So, don't wait for your soul mate
Don't wait for the glory days
If you take time to affirm it
You might miss it

Life happens
Sub-second
