Time Stops



Starring out the window
Time passes by
The earth and life continue

Trees move with the passing wind
Cars pass on the highway that is behind my yard
Life continues

As the sun moves across the sky
The shadows in the yard move to the other side
As life continues

Feeling as time has stopped I dare not move
For I might just miss you
As the earth and life continue

I wait and watch trees and cars continue to move
Times seemingly frozen
Where are you

I know you will be back
You said see you later
I am frozen time stops

I try not to worry
I know when the traffic stops
It is time for you to arrive

Then I know that you’re alive
I go to the door with every closing car door
It is not you

Traffic has stop
The front door opens
My fears are gone when I see your face

You smile at me and I jump for joy
You are here just like you said
Time has taken my fear and dread

Mom I love you
Thank you for coming home
My life can continue time can start

I will always be waiting for you
Until the end of time
I am a lost dog when you are away

Time away from you
Is time wasted
On wondering how long it will be before I see you again

I love my furless parent until the day I die
Time may forget but we will always have that time together to remember
Those days when time stopped
