Time is a poor thief Who trips through life Indiscriminate While we slouch towards Babylon Time reminds me of love I once held long ago Profligate And I build life anew Full of love undiscovered In a future worth living Intimate As I wander towards Heaven

Time is a poor thief
Time is a poor thief Who trips through life Indiscriminate While we slouch towards Babylon Time reminds me of love I once held long ago Profligate And I build life anew Full of love undiscovered In a future worth living Intimate As I wander towards Heaven
This is a reflection of my life recently where I am considering the lives of people I no longer interact with and the people I've lost. It is also an aspiration towards a future with my daughter. Hug your friends and family close.
