Time Machine
As long as the sun rises time will continue to pass by
Greeting those who just arrived
Kissing good by those headed for a better life
You go to bed crawling
and wake up as wrinkly as a raisin
A blink of an eyeΒ Β and ten years have gone by
Every year, month, day, minute, second
its non replicable
Non existing twice
There will never be a yesterday like today
Nor a today like yesterday
Rocking back and forth
in front of a warm fire place
Looking at the non-stopping clock
A lifetime printed in 90 karat golden sheets
Capturing every stage of life
Preserving memories until the end of time
A person to be known thousands of years after their death
Time machine
Allowing people to re-live their greatest experiences
All earth's gold brought together
Transformed into a thin glossy sheet of paper
An image, a picture
A treasure...
Poem written on 2012 from the perspective of my eighteen year old self.
