Stop

Stop

A Poem by Maria Elise

Do you ever look at someone and for a moment the world stops turning? You feel the air catch as it enters your lungs because she has literally taken your breath away. No stimuli in or out. She has stopped time and space and she makes eye contact and you are lost. Lost in her and her everything and all of the doubt, fear, anxiety disintegrates; you no longer invade the area, you simply are. because she has made it okay to exist; she has made it okay to take up space; she has made life worth something infinitely more than it was before. She doesn't even know what she has done to you as she looks away but the moment is still there. You are still. Everything is still. And you, frozen in this space exist only as that emotion and you realize that is what makes her different. She makes you stop

And think about what you feel. She makes you stop


And look into yourself for the answer.
