Why does time move by so fast,
So that those who get caught up in the moment,
Fail to see the blatantly obvious?
Sometimes time moves so fast that everythings just a blur,
But when you come out of this daze,
You are shocked by what you have missed,
And that maybe things havent turned out the way you wanted them too,
Sometimes we need to just take a step back,
To put our lives on pause,
So we all can look at our lives,
And appreciate what we have,
Before it all disappears at the blink of an eye,
Sometimes time moves so fast that everythings just a blur,
But when you come out of this daze,
You are shocked by what you have missed
I stare down at the ground,
It looks so far down from atop the building,
I whisper to myself:
Well... This is it I guess
Eyes closed as I begin to make my descent,
Even after everything,
Im still afraid of heights,
Fear and adrenaline rush through my veins,
Body twists and turns mid-air,
Toes touch the ground,
Im amazed they dont break,
Legs begin to buckle and bend,
Body falls towards the ground,
Gasps and exclamations come from bystanders
I am .
I am .
I am a traceur,
Hands reach down to the ground,
Arms bend to absorb the impact,
Head curled to my chest,
Body rolls forward
