Persistence of time

I singled out your words 
In a crowd of many, 
words through an hourglass 
filled the room. 
I, the only one breathing 
saw only you in the clouds of dust. 
Time was our only escape 
But time 
like a quiet thief at night, 
waits for no one, 
I could not stop time 
But gladly 
it stopped 
for us. 
Words are timeless, 
priceless particles 
often taken for granted, 
misused, abused. 
But, I 
In a room of many, 
saw only you. 
Time being a gift, 
even more so through the eyes of regret, 
wanted nothing more, 
but I could not stop time, 
gladly it stopped 
for us.
