Time stands still
When you wish it would fade
It seems to speed up
When you wish it would stay
Such a fickle thing
Time
How many have sought to master it
This unseen force
To bend it to their will
Yet felt it slip by
A constant flow, a never-ending stream
Or perhaps a circle
No beginning, no end
A cycle?
No no that cannot be
Surely there must be and end
As there is with every beginning
But when
Soon as the morrow
Distant as millennia
Who can say
Many have fallen behind the greater flow
Their separate tributaries long dry
But we are still running
Will we see the end
Not likely
Our lives only measure
As separate ripples.
There must be an end
Though no where in sight
But what is an end
Loss of consciousness
Unaware of the world
Or is there something more
And what is life
Simple consciousness
Awareness of breathing and existing
An illusion
A prison
And time is jailer
And bar and chain and brick
And executioner.
Time is truly an insidious thing
Can you not see
It steals your happiness
Prolongs your grief
Tortures with its odd pace
And yet time is ignorant
Its greatest weapon
The set limit
Allotted to us all
Is a blessing
Only when our time is done
Are we free
It can’t understand
That death is not the worst.
And there is its fear
Death
The greatest end
A fear shared by all,
Or only those ignorant of its meaning
The uncertainty
The crushing nothingness
To not exist
Who said this is the way
Where is it written death is the end
We don’t know
We’ve never peered
Beyond the veil
And I will not fear to.
Time fears itself
Cannot understand
That though it has always been
It will not always be
For as we know when things begin
The always have an end
Time is no exception
Will you cry
When your time is up
Will you beg for mercy
An extension
Or will you greet death
As if an old friend?

This world will never be
As I expected
Why am I not surprised
That you’re behind it
I will not leave behind
All that was once mine
To make you feel like
It wasn’t in vain
It was always in vain
No matter how I try
You just won’t die
I cry out why
And hear no reply
Now and again I’ll try
To save my life
Maybe I’ll take your life one day
‘Cause its not to late
Its never to late
No one will ever see
What you’ve committed
And what a shame it wasn’t needed
Are you proud inside
Your face seems to belie
Your having doubts now
Was it right
It had to be right
I tried and tried
But your still alive
I cry out why
And still no reply
Now and again I’ll try
To save my life
Maybe we’ll both die one day
‘Cause its not to late
Its never to late
The life you stole
Won’t come back
The loss we felt
Cant forget that
The home we had
Won’t be ours again
This world will never be
As I expected
And if I was wrong
I tried and tried
And your still alive
I don’t care why
There’s no more time
Now and again I’ll try
To take my life
Maybe we’ll both be dead one day
‘Cause its not to late
Its never to late (its never to late)
Its not to late
It’s never too late

Autumn leaves parade the streets while the cold nips at my feet. I hug my robe tighter to me. No one in our house has stirred not even you or so I thought. I remembered when I had to lock away all of my dreams because I thought they would never come true, and as if it was your cue you came up behind me and kissed me on the cheek. You handed me a cup of hot chocolate knowing I did not like the bitter drink that remained in your hand. You pulled up a rocking chair and we rocked together in silence, holding hands. Orange tints in the sky would soon wake our little one and just like that we went back to our lives. You got ready for work while I took out pots and pans, but before you left you took me and you kissed me like you did on that chilly Autumn day, a few years back when you and I thought I would die.

All my life, I feel like I have been alone. However, it was on one day that I felt completely different… On that rainy, foggy day, my world rose up and the sun finally shined in through the gathering clouds. On that day, I...
