WRITING OBSTACLE
Submitted by Maranda Quinn
Show a powerful emotion – love, grief, rage - in a quiet, everyday moment.
Instead of writing a dramatic and drawn out scene, think about how subtle actions and sensory details can carry the weight of the feeling.
Time Goes By
Time goes by
And nothing can stop it
Things happen so quick
But go so slow
Relationships get destroyed
In just a few minutes
But take
Days
Months
Years
To repair
Time goes by
And nothing can stop it
Mistakes were in the past
There’s no going back
People mess up
A lot
But what happened
Happened
And nobody can reverse it
Time goes by
And nothing can stop it
Minute by minute
Day by day
The year goes by
Each day
Slowly passing
Everyday
May feel the same
Yet
Everyday
Brings something new
Time goes by
And nothing can stop it
