Time Stood Still

Can time stand still forever?

You never saw her

For what she was,

You only saw her 

For her family's legacy

But when you got the chance 

To know her,

And talk to her

It was as if time stood still

All the doubts subsided,

The fears flew away

All you recognized her for

Was her beauty

And her charm,

You finally came to realize

That you love her

And want to spend 

The rest of your life

With her

As time stood still 

For all the days

Of your lives

Beautiful. It makes sense and is relatable, even though I've never read the book.
Great - I really enjoyed it.

I really like this! How sometimes people see right through someone they end up falling in love with. and when it does happen, it's like time stands still every moment you are with them. like nothing else matters. great :)

Good shot..!!

Nice write, quick read! I liked it. Isn't it funny all the things we poets draw inspiration from? Movies, Books, Life, hell even merely a cloud can inspire a poet to pen their lines. Bravo!

This is a beautiful story about love and many times our perceptions change once we get to know someone. There becomes a deeper beauty a more powerful feeling.
