Sometimes, I wish to be still.

and the world would follow,
I could see the clock stop ticking, the falling leaves freezing in mid-air, the trees stopped swaying
the cries of a baby turning silent, the laughter of couples turning mute,
I wish to stop and observe my surroundings.
busy lights of the city turn solid colors, the cars buzzing for the toll fades,

I want to take all of it in, and then, get back to reality.
