If I could stop the world right now
I’d do everything in my power to feel okay
I wouldn’t allow myself to mope on what I don’t have
Nor focus on what I fear I’ve always wanted
I would have no one to compare myself
I could be happy with being just me
Instead the world keeps turning
And everyone moving while I’m stuck on a lonely path
No power to change the world
No fierce words to set things on fire
No sense of where I fit in this mess
But if I could stop the world today
I would hold on to every soothing whisper from the wind
Warm every inch of my skin with the summer rain
Breathe in the scents from roots buried deep in the soil
Feel alive and not just exist in a mass of milestones
I am alive
I am infinite
I am enough
If I could stop the world right now,
I might believe it.
