I Am Time

I existed before all things, as you know them and not, and will be here long after, and though I allow myself to be used by, I cannot be controlled by mankind.

The way you measure MY characteristics is only the way in which you have chosen to see ME.

I AM, Everlasting to everlasting, yet still referred to as, “The Beginning and The End.”
I AM, both Finite and Infinite.

In ME, all things are possible, without me, there are none
I forbid and allow all things.

I AM, the ever revolving channel that allows all things to change yet repeat themselves.

A winding revolution of everything and nothing, in which symbols and characters were placed upon to mark the universes greatest and even most minute’ events.

I AM, by your definition: “The indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole.”

In Me, Knowledge found Patience and became Wisdom, the universe was created and everything within!

The definition of my name in reverse alone is proof that there is truth within the story of creation and that; it was through ME from whom the universe emanates:
-To send out from a source, (light, energy, etc...)
-To throw or give off or out (as light or heat)
-To give utterance or voice to (and GOD commanded all things to come and so they were)
I AM, Seven Days

I AM; Week, Month, Year, Decade, Century, and Millennium.
I AM, Vast, yet also referred to as, “In A Little Bit”

I AM, Often and Seldom, and also often thought of as, too long or too short
but seldom looked at as, Enough

My end is so long, it is the one thing everyone wants to, but can’t seem to wait until,
yet still swears to love until

In ME all things are kept and released, yet it has been said that,
“Only I will tell”
I AM the greatest holder of secrets, yet in ME all things are revealed

It has been said that “I heal all wounds,” yet in ME, you have found both joy and mourning.
I AM, the distance between Birth and Death.

I AM the months you were carried in the womb to the day you breathe your last breath and have recorded within myself, every memory in-between, including those that you and your loved ones have forgotten.
Though your memories may fail, Mine will never falter.

I AM, the calendar with a camera that has a real-live feed into the past, present, and future.

I AM, the measure of every step of life’s metronome, placing with precision, every beat, every note of the song of life and I have signed MY signatures at the beginning of life’s musical piece, before the clef and after the key signature.
I AM, The perfect song.

I existed before all things, as you know them and not, and will be here long after, and though I allow myself to be used by, I cannot be controlled by mankind.

The way you measure MY characteristics is only the way in which you have chosen to see ME.

Who AM I?

For, I AM, none other than, TIME
