The World of Time

The World of Time

What is time ?, but a river, flowing into and from the universes sea.
What is time ?, but a raging river, ever flowing on, for all eternity.
Time – passing, has become the essence of mans mystery.
Time – passing, has become the story in books of history.

Time, the machine by which some guide their lives.
Time travel, takes into realms of past, present and future.
Time experienced, something some just love to kill.
Time, one does, is the killer of one’s spirit.

What time offers, upon this plane is the death of the soul.
What time offers, is a chance for us to come to know.
Time is but a manmade creation, an illusion.
Time, during our time, offers no conclusion.
