Stop and Take a Second
Stop and take a second,
Just to look around you.
Breathe for just one moment,
When the rest of the world does not have your attention.
Close your eyes and dream.
Dream like the days when everything was possible.
Plug your ears and hear,
Hear what you are really feeling.
Get away from the world.
Have one moment to,
Stop and take a second.
