The Reflection of Time

Time is only
 a continuous 
mocking mirror
 that forever
reflects 
back to when 
your feebleminded 
feet timidly took those 
first noble steps 
down that
 illustrious isle 
towards intimacy .
But then your mind 
murmurs back into the 
pitiful present realms of reality.
Leaving you
 to cower
 and cry 
still wondering 
where the time went by .
