I long to stop time

He is a busy man, but I could find him

I could beg Him to slow it down

Offer Him something worthwhile

Would He accept?

Would He bother to listen?

Maybe He would tell me no

Or maybe He would ask me why I want it

What would you do with it? He might even ask

Waste it, I would say

He might laugh in my face
