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
