Time

sorenbarrett

One day I was given the time of my life

It was not just any time,

but my time

It was a time being

I took my time

and had time on my hands

It was never down

but always up

One day it ran out

I found that it waits for no man

It flew,

but also crawled,

dragging on,

It went on and by,

moving on,

then stood still

It is so short

Now time is my worst enemy

but killing it is no answer

I guess it's time to go

served in prisons

and any line at a fast food place

        Time can be so unnerving in our life sometimes but my time on this world has been wonderful, may yours be the same Soren.

          Thanks Gold, the read and wishes are appreciated. Time to me seems an illusion and I might as well have fun with it while it lasts.

            Yes Soren, enjoy every moment.

            Time for sale?
            not thanks
            I'm good living out
            the original sentence
            I was fated with
            ya'll stay and enjoy
            the show
            I wait for my spaceship
            escape, no regrets
            I wasn't made for this
            denomination of a life
            too old a soul..
            too weary a heart..
            and see too much
            despite my short-sighted
            handicap..
            lol
