Oh How the Days Fly

oh how the days they fly > they soar above the clouds > with the flutter of a heart beat > and memories resound > time is an endless thing > that the days seem to forget > as they fly much too fast > for humanity to get a grip > and we try to catch the days > as they leave one by one > but we stumble and fall > teetering on oblivion > And as humanity sits alone > with only the Earth and its wonders > we beg for more time > to explore > to wander > Because the days don't just fly > they run faster than light > and we can't keep up > but yet we still try > we snatch up the days > all the ones we can reach > the days that run slow > and the hours we can keep > because time is a precious stone > worn around our necks > wisdom and love and pain > are used to polish it > and our time is our days > and our days are our lives > and without all our days > then we could not fly.
