Eternity

Time passes...
Like water from an infinite rain
Rushing quickly down a drain
Swirling in endless spirals

Time passes...
Like a growing weight intensifying the strain
Pressing down with negligent disdain
Slowly increasing the burden

Time Passes...
Like a shadowy, speeding, overnight train
Rushing silently through life's plain
Devouring every moment

Time passes...
Like a cooling balm, numbing the pain
Leaving only an invisible stain
Healing unseen wounds

Time passes...
