A Dust In Time

Life is nothing but a dust in time You can let it pile up and cover everything you think you know You can clean it off and let it flow freely in the air You could believe it to be a nuisance and let it consume all you fear You could chase it down relentlessly You could let it form into a giant ball of missed opportunities and sweep it aside You could cough it up day after day with no relief You could just let it be and see how much that bottle can hold Whatever you choose Remember time is nothing but a dusting of dirt Here today Gone tomorrow
