*The ebb and flow of movement In which we measure We count the ticks of a clock As it sways throughout history Fading nevermore as the face gazes onward In a never ending trance Transcending the fabric of space Urning to be denied its existence Ignoring its pleas we lock it up Dissect it into smaller parts Smaller and smaller still We give these fragments a name. Days Months Years The list goes on As time starts to fade We begin to question why we did it in the first place We ask ourselves Is the measurement of time really worth it? We focus so much in it that We ourselves fell into time itself Losing our immortal selves We embraced a life of death and pain And for what? Just to have ourselves locked away in a cell? Lost in the confines of which we call. . . Time. . .*
