Time moves
Constantly, consistently
It neither flies nor drags
Only our interpretation
Gives those distinctions

Time waits for no one
For no thing
Time has no master
Except perpetual motion
And so it goes

More time for the good
To relish accomplishments
To be with loved ones
Time cares not
For our desires

Less time to consider
Failures, death
Sadness and the like
Time cares not
For our desires

With or without you
Time marches on
With or without us
Time marches on
Time marches

With or without this world
This earth, this universe
Time marches on
It is not needy
Time marches

It is not concerned
With our busyness
Nor our names for it
My time is limited
Time itself is infinite

Seconds, minutes, hours, days
Weeks, months, years
Decades, centuries
Millennia, eons
Are all the same to time

It does not speed up
It will not slow down
It will not stop
Only you can make the most
Of the time you have

Celebrate well, mourn appropriately
But do not waste time
For your end
Is nearer than you think
And time will march on
