Time just carries on
Time is less than a speck of dust
A moment of lust
A second to fall in love
A trickle of tears
More than a grain of sand
Like an ocean of water continuously flowing through my heavy hands
Time has no demands
It has two hands
I can’t push it back
I can’t move it forward
Like a monster it swallows my time up
We all want more time
It cannot be seen
Or held prisoner in my nightmare dreams
Time is my only true travelling companion
A devil and an angel
It gives and it takes
We love
We hate
Eating our time like a piece of delicious sponge cake
I can’t retrieve it back
I can’t chase time down the track
One day time will let go of my weary hand
Time will travel on
My own time will have gone
Time just carries on
