Between Coffee Breaks

None

"We are conditioned to this prison, the walls of our world.
The illusion of free will, the illusion of control."

For we never are in complete control of ourselves;

Time is invisible yet so clear and unsure.
Occasionally stopping for a brief moment just to prove what it is.
We war against ourselves each day.
Trying to be who we aren't, who we were never meant to be,
Pulling each other apart one day at a time. Till there is nothing left,
except a fragmented picture of who we could have been.

Who we should have been.

But, time cares for nothing and no one. Its faithful to its purpose.
Time becomes everything, inconsiderate, indifferent, merciless
and yet subtle, hidden all around us. Making fun of us.
Moving only one way. Away from us. Escaping us.

Perspective:the appearance of things relative to one another as determined by their distance from the viewer

I thought a physical definition more fitting than a mental one.

I meant that this. This piece of writing, is subject to your perspective.
That is, when you use words like prison and walls. It's how you see it.
Someone looking at it from the opposite side of your circumstances might have had a less stark view?
The possibilities are endless aren't they?

Yep.
Completely my perspective.
Isn't that obvious?

Yes; is.

I wasn't trying to make a point though.
I only wondered if your mind would agree that your perspective could be a part of a whole.
One option among many or maybe two.

The dialogue gets boring no?per82

I would change the title....or name...whatever it is...but I understand you are the author, so you get the first choice...
I liked the piece of creation though

In time, you will learn my son that time in linear...and a friend rather than a foe. Keep exploring...but make sure at some point of time you put down that flag of conviction.
