Oh crap, Garrett wrote a poem.

Take it easy on me guys, I'm no poet. This s**t happens once in a blue moon. Less than, even.

Anyway, thought this up while I was making lunch. But of course, by the time I got to write it down it went from "Hey, that's pretty good!" to "Aw s**t, what was it again?" and I improvised.

Enjoy-ish.

Paused

I put my life on pause a moment
Just to take a look around.
All the things I’ve missed these days
Never any time for myself.

Deep breath, let it all sink in
Feel the sun on my face
The wind in my hair.
These things there’s never any time for.

This brief moment
This paused window of time.
I want it to last forever.
So I hit Stop.

Just stop.
