Life and Time

It takes all the time

But never seize to restart

I’m reminded by continuality

Even though it outstretches the thought

And here comes astonishment

When a halt is put on course

Then it looms and decorates the face

Uncertainty prowls closer

How weak we judge when to act

Every last one abide to pay

The time loan given from start

And last straws will be drawn

When ticktock fades away

Oh death knell takes a pose

And seraph plays a part to make us glad

The road is numbered with a calling.

But i wonder when we all wear out

And deplete with the egg we dwell in

Then we think again

Does time really make sense?

Or is life just a bully we must accept?
