How to escape time

Listen
Focusing on the chords in the song you consistently replay to know why A minor leads to G, which resolves to C and how your ears knew the resolving tone would be missed if it were never played at the end. Giving you a taste of how to say goodbye.


Kiss
Absent when lips touching and never knowing for how long. Simple yet strong. Eyes closer. Revealing why they were once so sad and convincing each mind to stare longer. Sometimes faster because your late for your calling time and your mind was trying to predict the future.


Walk 
Each step closer to imagined conclusion, obstacles along the way expected from both sides proving that you can welcome the difficulties. Sometimes missing your exit while the stars watch till you see that the next one provides more.


Paint
Protecting each stroke as it connects to the center idea. Proving your point with a color pallet resembling the sky from your favorite weather. Mixing colors. Realizing that they depend on each other and provide compliments when side by side.


Breathe
Not just because you have to. Each inhale bringing new ideas, and every exhale letting go of the sting  that arrived yesterday and reappeared today. Cold breaths of needed oxygen reminding you that you won't always need warm and accepting ones. Losing your breath from collapsing to your back, flat on the floor you crave for one more breath even if in the lowest amount.


Aspire 
Striving to never waste time or let it collect between my skin and bones as I choose to disregard the appearance. Never accepting disuse. Knowing of the possibilities waiting for me from escaping time, I will never go back.
