Time

silentwishes

Time

ticking away without us even noticing 

our lives shorten with each movement of the hands 

silence leaving the world as technology takes over our senses 

selling ourselves to millions of people we don’t even know 

believing lies and slowly killing the love we had for ourselves 

listening to others talk about a life we wish we had 

of fame and money 

sex and pleasure 

supposed joy 

but those people never mention the sadness inside 

the fact that they are just as lost and empty as the rest of us
