A matter of time

Lorenz

Let's not waste our time 

because fleeting moments 

are so precious ...

----------------

Time is a great liar 

who always has  a few apologies 

for not showing up when expected...

and just when you think  you recognize it,

this rascal stretches out endlessly ,

or  go back to childhood ,

offering you a thousand and one face...

 Time is a void through information flows,

  riddle in the form of   quantum equation...

sincere false friend playing with the clock

  and telling us :

'' It's already too late ! -wait for me a little longer...

I've changed the hours of seasons ,you know ?

  I'll be back soon and  everything will be like before !  ''

time doesn't heal a wound-it only adds a memory.

 -'' I have to go now ! But don't worry ,

  I'll always be watching over you !

Take care of the lonely child ...''

  Time : You're only  a bad habbit 

  who knocks on the door 

without being invited ,

 making the walls cry ,weary from having

loved too much ...

 You drape a delicate veil over the empty cradle

and make the withered grave bloom again...

 you still remember the name of the toys 

left behind in the attic ...

 the rats gnawed the Barbie doll .

  Life passes,bowing  out ,

Alice's rabbit will never return ...

  We enter eternity without having written 

our plea to time ! 

  That was just  a play ...

    the mystery of time and life

    • Lorenz

      a mystery buried deep in the attic ...

    • sorenbarrett

      Our toys age poorly in the attic where rats abound. Memory polishes the silver and repaints the colors. Digging in the attic one finds defects never seen.

        My teddy had a heart of grizzly ...

        • sorenbarrett

          I hope the rats didn't get it

          • Lorenz

            I never been back to the attic !
