Master of Disguise
Time is a master of disguise.
It creeps and moves behind our eyes.
We see it only in a glance,
of faces worn or change by chance.
To prove it chooses when to fly,
try watching a minute pass on by.
That pot on the stove just won’t boil,
until you’ve turned your back to all.
Good moments are enjoyed gladly.
You look up and time's behaving badly.
Racing for home to beat the gun,
it likes to run if you’re having fun.
