The world stopped that day
The wind stopped blowing
The birds didnt fly
Cars didnt move
The sun stopped shining
Time stopped
The animals seemed frozen
Nothing moved Not one thing-human nor other
My mind was blank
My thought process stopped too
For a moment it felt like my heart stopped; along with my breath
All the noise just stopped
Silence
Thats all I heard that day
The day the world stopped
The day I lost you
