Funny How Time Seems To Fly
Funny how time seems to fly…
Seems like yesterday you were right here…here with me-
Now I am left here alone, rummaging through your debris.
You left such a mess but I’ll take care of your things-
Oh my, how much sadness such a tragic death brings.
They say in time a broken heart will eventually heal-
I say to them, “well you don’t know exactly how I feel”.
Time withers away like the dust on the forest grounds-
And brings more sadness when in the lost and found.
I still can’t believe that six short years have passed-
Seems like yesterday is when I kissed you last.
Why is it that every year time seems to fly more quickly?
It didn’t seem too long ago you were frail and sickly.
With the swift of a memory and a quick moment of regret-
Brings me back to your final days, oh I’ll never forget.
Time is funny sometimes, how it shows no mercy-
Even though years are brisk, for your touch I’m still thirsty.
In thirty years I will look back and wonder how time flies so fast-
And I will embrace the fact empty days are nothing but the past.
Until the day I die I will still be asking the Lord above why,
In all the moments I’ve missed you, time seemed to fly.
Maybe because during the days I’ve thought of your sweet tears-
The minutes quickly turn into hours, and months turn into years.
