Time unapologetically cheats us
Going fast and slow like a playful child
While claiming otherwise
When we notice the anomaly

Still
Like a kid that's too wise
For his unknowning parents
What is discarded down the stream
Into the past can never be retrieved
And tried in its infant form

So
We accept it
Accept the deception
As self evident truth
While
Deep down inside
Remain forever
Skeptical
