Joanna Daniel Poet Rhyme

Deja Vu

That which has been is that which shall be
That which is done is what shall be done
That which we've seen is what we shall see
For there's nothing new under the sun*

So a sense of feeling déjà vu
Has already been there before time
History repeats itself, what's new? 
Time forgotten reminds life to chime

A time warp, moving from hour to hour
To stop this cycle, we've no power
A monotonous repetition
From time to time, life's a transition

Déjà vu, this has happened before
People talking of the 'time' concept
There's always so much more to explore
Time is relative,we all accept



*Ecclesiastes 1:9-10
