Time Soars

If you look deep into the high dry sky,

You might be able to catch time fly by.

The sands of the hour glass slowly decay away.

The future you were longing for already is today.

Right now,

Has already,

Become then.

What you thought was in the present,

Has just gone to the past.

What you think is in the future,

Has just gone to the past.

You know its going to happen, just not when,

Your pain hurts now, but it won’t hurt then.

Time soars, not fly’s,

Doesn’t fall, but glides.

As time goes adrift, it is forever no more,

Washed out to sea, to never see another shore.

Every single second the time will change,

Shift and rearrange, slowly to derange.

Like a burring candle, the flame melts us down,

Were stuck in a never ending ocean, trying not to drown.
