My Time

Time is ever flowing But my time is never slowing What time do I have left here Should I live in fear As I hold my dear ones near In my final breathes I breathe Time starts to leave me In a river twisting and turning My heart yearning For just another minute I don’t wish to leave I close my eyes gently Grasping your hands in mine Time has found me at a loss The absence of time comes to greet me All that ever was will no longer be As it comes to take me Tears slip down these familiar faces around me I wish I could say something comforting That it will all be okay My time has come Taking me so young They all surround me now I wish they would stop crying I wish I would stop dying But time is the final decider Nothing I can do Nothing they can do I have lived I have loved I have cried And now I had died Hello my dear friend time I promise Ill be just fine
