Seconds fall, dripping one after the other in an unbroken eternity. Slowly as they accumulate, the past becomes a formidable mass of years, Before which we stand, unintent of heeding the whispers of such a behemoth. Yet in retrospect, we shed tears and laugh greatly at the moments bygone, Reliving memories as if they were happening, only to realize we are trappedβ Forever destined to never reconcile with the past. A tragedy, And yet an inevitable truth which limits the resent of all men.
Written last July 5, 2019 (exactly a year and two days ago). I was pondering the essence of time then.
