Hands of Time

Stop the clock,
turn back the time
tilt the hourglass over again

back to when I didn’t care
back to when, 
you were not important…

my heart has been shaken, 
it’s still reverberating 
my thoughts populated 
by memories of you…

you’re still here,
out of sight
but not out of mind
you’re still a part of me
your presence still lingers here…
