What can happen in 30 seconds?
The answer is anything.
When life is constantly flashing before your eyes, it feels like 30 seconds is all you have.

When hours go by as fast as minutes,
And the world seems as if its spinning out of orbit,
And time just stops itself and everything around you stops every thing.

It lasted 30 seconds.
Standing there, watching for someone to move an inch and waiting for it to go away.
Calling out names and tapping on your friends to help unfreeze the moment,
But nothing works.

Stuck and lost
Trying to figure out why
Who knew time could be so scary?
And when the time finally goes up,
And everything goes back to normal,
You always notice at the last second that there was that one person that never stopped moving.

That person is... you.
