Time

Time controls everything that is touched

Sending us back a million years

Then it seemed easier than today

It takes a second to sprout a thought

And several years to become a doctor

The dependable clock which depicts the outcome of our day

Is just a ticking item, hanging on our walls for display

We all fear the future, and forget our past

Casting away the thought that one day the future will be behind us

Ticking backwards in time

All the numbers man created

Fit in schedule with one another

The continuum of life revolves around time

A baby is born and a person has died

The world is back where it started a year ago

Somehow millions of years older

Staring up and watching the stars

Wondering how many years they have seen

While the sun provides its daily shining it has done for everything that has ever lived

And the last thought that goes through our heads is that one day brings everything closer to death

Patience can be hard for some

But the anticipated wait brings what is desired

She makes a mistake of her past

Redemption doesn’t come with a clock

But instead with patience

And one day time will be on your side
