Like Time In a Bottle
How time slips away
in dreams both night and day
the adventures of a lifetime lost
paid in unmeasurable costs.
Steps were taken without thought
a glance to looking back at all it brought
the blending mix of dissimilar souls
aching to see what the future holds.
Play a game with me
recalling all the memories
of this you and me we no longer know
years disappearing in the paths we forgo.
Nothing left but time to share
locked in a bottle deprived of air
with steps no longer heard but taken
to the end of each heart's breaking.
How time slipped away in the passage
of life locked in a bottle's lost message
never to be retrieved
by love two hearts who only once believed.
