‘Stop and take time’
is a phrase to remind
Often paced
in this race
we call life
We will face
Ourselves stumble and fall
far from grace
Get upset
thrown off track or lose sight of
and just plain forget
A respite put aside
Even small amount set
Where our life’s placed on pause
No more trying to get
We’re not running or chasing
This moment is still
Left behind is that drive
To consume and fulfill
For a minute it's tranquil
We clear our filled heads
Ruminating no more
on what’s done and what’s said
Meditating
A stillness
to find inner peace
Or get back what’s been lost
If not all;
just a piece

Run as fast as you can, little one.
One day, you'll see that it was for your own good.
One day, you'll wake up and it will all be okay.
Run as fast as you can, little one.
Run until your body turns into stone.
This life does not favor the faint-hearted.
Run as fast as you can, little one.
Maybe if you stay away long enough, you'll forget all your hardships and sorrows.
Run as fast as you can, little one.
For those who do not finish the race will fall behind and get lost.
Run as fast as you can, little one.
Until one day, you can stand on your own two feet
And you won't need to run anymore.
