Time

All time is suspended in a single moment,

So I shall see with the eyes of a poet,

The past present and future, 

Happen with cruel humor,

 

The past effects the present,

And the present changes the future,

Some say time is set in stone,

Other say that it can never be known,

 

I beg you not to ask me,

For I prefer to wait and see,

The past has passed,

The present goes fast,

 

While the future in uncertain,

Soon time will raise its curtain,

And as we wait,

We pray that it will give us a kind fate,

 

Time has broken the minds of many,

And can take the lives any,

It remembers a precious few,

And knows not the meaning of new,

 

The secret to remembrance many have sought,

But I, I will be the girl that time forgot.
