Blink

Life stopped in an instant.
Blink. The image forever frozen.
The vision trapped inside.
You would not have chosen,
The path where you hide.

Blink. It will again appear,
Showing you your faults and shame,
You hope your friends won't hear,
And begin to know your pain.

Blink. The world has changed again.
All that you thought you knew,
Is gone and you wonder when,
You soul will begin anew.

Blink. Thoughts that you can't capture.
A song breaks you down.
A feeling of perfect rapture.
It takes you over and you drown.

Blink. Seasons flash in your mind.
All these things morph your eyes.
You've seen something of this kind.
A stranger right beside you cries.
Blink. Has your world changed again?
No. It's exactly the same.
Yes. Time moves on, so will I.
I wish to never open my eyes again.
It feels like I've opened them for the first time.
