what is real, just a dream

how can i keep my happiness

when people are changing

nothing is staying the same

the world won't stop spinning
for just a few minutes

time won't stall

just so i can wrap my arms around someone
for a little longer

i need a sense of hope

a little less change

and a lot of what i want

it sounds selfish i know

but don't take it the wrong way

at times

i can only find peace

with a pencil in my right hand

a piece of paper infront of me

and sometimes that isn't enough

because nothing is staying the same
