What’s the matter?

Hyacinthe

What’s the matter?

In a matter of time 

It won’t matter,

So why is this matter so maddening in my mind?

 

They say time will chase you down

It won’t stop coming 

So you better get running, 

But the matter won’t end. 

 

If I ceased to matter would this matter cease?

I continue to madden at the times increase. 

It’s almost over and it won’t decrease. 

I’m mad.

    (forgive me, I read your words
    and was inspired to poetically reply
    I meant no disrespect, in doing so
    just got carried away, is all)
    'let's delve deeper:
    within Time, we Exist
    that Matters
    for when
    we cease, to Exist
    so does the Time
    we gave Life, to
    What's history, without us
    witnessing it
    What does it matter, how much future
    others still have
    if we're denied a role, as part of it..
    In the now, we squander
    is it Time or matter, we surrender
    is it us that Matter
    or does matter's, Effect on us
    Define our worth..
    Milky ways, as chocolate bars
    bite-sized science
    as our, Factoids of tangible
    in a world
    beyond, our imagination's
    surreal..
    'What’s the matter?
    In a matter of time
    It won’t matter,

    So why is this matter so maddening in my mind?'..
    because, we're pulling on fate's
    galloping reins
    and all we get in reply, is a distant
    laughter
    in that mirror, that's a callous reflective
    but refuses to act as a revealing reflector
    in our lives...'
