I found that most people would describe time
As a cruel mistress
As a revenge drivin enemy
However it seems to me that time is an oblivious child
Playing tricks on people
Like speeding up the good moments
Slowing down to boring ones
Not truly realizing the fact
That he is dragging everyone to their inevitable end
So stuck in his own head that he doesn’t see
That everyone around him either fears or despises him
He instead thinks we are all his friend
Laughing along with him

Good write HJ.
Yes, time seems to speed up when we're enjoying ourselves, and slow down when we're not, or when there may be various troubles.
thank you!!
time does seem to change with circumstance doesn't it?
what a kind way, to look at it
and somehow, it helps - I think;
like
when a kid kicks our ankles
we fist look down, raging
then smile, knowing
they just wanted our attention
lonely, they do what they can
to have us play with them, even
if just for a short while...
