Time is a funny thing
It moves fast
And then it drags
It never seems to stop
Unless it shouldn't
You can't pin it down

Time feels like so much
Making days whip past
Crashing moments together
Blurring the seconds
Causing you to forget
What you went into the room for

Time hides a lot
It stretches the memory
So that we forget the details
And use our own personalities
To fill in the blanks
That time leaves behind

It teaches us valuable lessons
But we hardly ever hear them
So busy we are
In our days
That we forget ourselves
As we scurry to finish
Things that will never be done

Time fades
The dwindling daytime
Crosses over to night
In the measure
Of the 4th dimension
Which ticks clocks on the wall
Then vanishes to the dark

Time can hurt you
When things take too long
Or passes in a flash
Forever in an instant
And the other way around
It can break promises
Causing your heart to ache

Time is an evil tool
Marching you along
To the beat of the drum
No end in sight
But the one most try to avoid
Death
That final frontier
No one wants to see

Time is eternal
And no matter what you do
It will teach you
It will outlast you
And it will create within you
A panic that you'll never shed
Of time lost that you never had.
