I was actually reading through a rough piece I wrote months ago. I tend to write as a form of catharsis so I don't tend to worry about conforming to conventions on form or rhyme.

Hope you like it!

CHANGE

Slip and die or stand and watch
Living life by the clock
Counting seconds like jelly beans
Shut tight in your jar, or so it would seem

You'��re waging war on every heart
But yearning for more than throwing the dart
Squinting one eye, you aim for the centre
It goes off course, for a short time you want her

If only time would stop
Or the world reverse on its axis
I�'d go back to the beginning
I'��d stop you from asking
Changing my mind
I'd change for the better.

A silent witness to all that you stand for
I reach for the lever, preventing you further
Blocking actions becoming consequences
Stopping hearts turning to ashes

If only time would stop
Or the world reverse on its axis
I'��d go back to the beginning
I'd stop you from asking
Changing my mind
I'��d change for the better.

Opening one eye I glimpse the morning sun
Enlightening my dream state where you're not The One
Breathing so deep I choke on the covers
I laugh at the silliness when I remember there were others

If only time would stop
Or the world reverse on its axis
I'��d go back to the beginning
I'��d stop you from asking
Changing my mind
I'��d change for the better.

In my thoughts, I see you
Changing your mind
In my heart, I feel you
Losing this time

Lovely.

There are so many things I wish I could go back and prevent from ever happening, especially people I wish I had never met.

Exactly! Realistically, I know all experiences make us who we are and I don't think I want to be any different. I sometimes wonder how different life would be, and whether it would be better or worse, if we did do the whole 'Sliding Doors' thing.

@Kik & Pkh: Thanks!
