Sometimes...

Sometimes I just wish everything would just stop for a moment... even just long enough for me to take a big breath and steady my feet. Time always goes by too fast, and I'm afraid I might miss things. I'm tired of living in constant blur, constant competition to see who can do it faster, better.

Sometimes I just wish I could leave everything behind and take a long walk along the river... watch the birds chirp, fallen leaves tumble, and listen to wind pushing clouds away so sun can shine on my hair.

Sometimes I just wish you'd notice me. Not just you, but them too. Is it because I changed my hair style?
I'd notice me if I were you.
I'd stop, turn, and say 'Hi' with a smile, if I were you.
I'd just walk up to you and give you a hug for no reason, if I were you.
Why are we so different when we breathe the same air, walk on the same dirt, and smile at the same sun?
