Don't blink
just like that: you're six years old and you're taking naps
and you wake up and you're twenty-five,
and your high school sweetheart becomes your wife.
Don't blink;
You just might miss your babies growing like mine did,
Turning into moms and dads next thing you know your better half
Of fifty years is there in bed
And you're praying God takes you instead
Trust me friend a hundred years goes faster than you think
So don't blink
