Slow Down

Slow down.
It's moving to fast.
There's no need to speed.
It'll end with a crash.
That's how it happens.
Blood from my wounds.
Shattered glass on the ground.
Everyone's screaming.
I should have slowed down.

Slow down.
Take your time with it.
No need to rush.
Thats how things get forgotten.
Just breathe.
Someone is angry.
I'm all messed up.
I forgot.
I should have slowed down.

Slow down.
No wonder I can't ever get it right.
I'm too busy pushing.
Faster.
No, slower.
Stop sprinting.
It's a long distance run.
I should have, if only I knew.
If only I slowed down.
