Waiting for time to catch up soon enough

Hiding,
waiting for time
to catch up soon enough;
we know the years go swiftly by,
and days,

And days,
hours do not last,
moments pass in a wink,
leave us to constantly wonder
when we,

When we
will stop to breathe,
catch the sun in our eyes,
open the windows, let sense be
alive,

Alive,
this time we might
not leave our lives to fate,
know someone, somewhere, has survived,
embrace

Embrace
and see as true,
beyond this empty stream
of rhetoric, meaning in words,
aware.

Hiding,
these days,
catch the sun in our eyes,
know someone, somewhere, has survived,
aware.
