TIME
Another year has come and gone
Just like friends' time moves on
Those remembered years ago
All have aged, as time moved slow
We look into the "looking glass"
And see an image as time moved fast
Though we know whose looking back
Still there seems to be a crack
It could just be a reflection,
A glitch in time of old direction
A part of who we use to be
The image looking back at me
Has time caught up or took it's toll?
Or is it still same 'ole same 'ole?
Am I who I use to be-
Though someone older looks back at me
" I wonder", staring into that glass
Has time really kicked my ***?
Is this who people really see
As I look at them, they look at me
-Yes, we all still age and still time goes on forever-
It will not stop and it has never
We cannot travel back in time;
Only wish at times, it were frozen
We cannot change what time has done
Only see what it has chosen
Each time we look into the glass hanging somewhere on a wall
The reflection staring back at you may not be you at all
The image we see as we go about our day and catch a glimpse of ourselves as we pass-
Is not what time has made us inside, and cannot reflect who we are in a glass
