within me there lay an invincible summer."

Time seems to run so quickly, slipping so delicately through our fingertips, impossible to grasp despite how hard we try. And we sit and watch as it dances by so gracefully, with each twist and turn it throws, and we watch out dirt-stained windows that adds a grey tinge to the world, though we're all too lazy to go and clean it. We watch as the gentle rain falls down, dripping down the window sill, as it soaks the mud and street corners. We watch the rain build itself in everything it can burrow in to and it springs flowers, and trees, and people to life, makes them grow. We watch the green grass and the completely bloomed flowers in the bed attached to your window, and the little children screaming as they run around the park below, we watch couples holding hands, and the sun finally dip down to sleep later than ever. We watch the trees finally lose their leaves on walks down crowded streets, the lights now shining brightly through the paper cut outs of lifeless branches. The last leaf losing it's grasp on the branch signifying the end of this cycle, the end of this part of the story, but there's still much to come. We watch the swing-sets that once carried many a children up to the skies above, now covered with a gentle blanket of white, grounding it. There would be time for flying much later, but now wasn't the time. Now was a time for a rest. That was until the rain came back, and we watch it melt away the blankets with force, and springing things back to life. Time runs so quickly, but always in cycles, and we watch it through our fingertips, we watch it from our windows, and the streets, and we watch because we learn that it's not something you can grasp.
