Can we take a pause for a second?
Life moves too fast
One minute youre friends
The next you end up falling in love with your best friend
And then 10 minutes later you lost two people
Your boyfriend and your best friend, all rolled into one
And just when things start to get better
Your grandpa dies
Then your uncle dies a couple days later
The world doesn't pause for anyone
I wish it did
And then you reach out to your ex boyfriend/best friend asking for help
Of course, they make things worse
I just want to take a pause!
But no one will let me
I just want to pause and go back to when I didn't lose 4 people all at once
I want to go back to when all my best friends lived in the same city
And when I lived with my parents
I want to see that happy young girl I was
Who isn't hiding behind a smile or a closed door
I just want life to take a pause
So I can digest what just happened
In the matter of one month I lost the love of my life and my grandpa
I already lost my grandma and I couldn't go to her funeral
I couldn't go to anyones funeral
I just want to say my goodbyes
But no one will let me
No will let me pause
I just want to pause and breathe
But over this course of 2019
I learned that life doesn't pause for anyone
No matter how much you beg
No matter how much you wish it did
Life keeps going forward
And you have to flow with it
Life moves too fast to drown yourself in the past
Life moves too fast
There are no pauses
There are no do overs
Just memories
Memories are pauses
One minute youre here
One minute we are strangers
One minute someone dies
One minute someone is born
Every minute something happens
There are no pauses in life
