And In Time

And in time, things change, people change, you change, I change. Trees splinter from one lightning strike and we split apart from one walk across a stage. The waves explode against the rocky shorelines, eroding them, changing them.
For this one moment, though, we are defiant against the strings of time, we are the puppets who are real boys. It is in this moment we are timeless, like photographs of days long past or a really great song you hear or remember. And maybe it's just a few notes or a line or a split second of a melody and you don't know exactly where you heard it or what big event caused you to think about it so many years later, but you enjoy the moment, just as you're enjoying this one.
It is unique and promising and different and even the butterflies in your stomach are excited, waiting to see, watching the curtain lift to figure out what all the hustle and bustle has been about.
It is almost time to let go. It is almost time to change. It is almost time to become something else, to shed the skin you've been wearing for so long. It is almost time to become something or anything, really. It's almost time. Are you ready?


"I'm keeping up with the time lapse lifeline
And they can run they can run from the farm to the last ride
And we can hear we can hear the first beat to the flat line
Oh, we dreamed a life
It was just like that
And just like that and just like that it's done..."
-Kaila Nicole
