Time

This world, this life is fleeting My heart its rhythm beating The constant sun is greeting The moon at its brief meeting Time flees from me The sun sets on me Stars rise on me Don’t change on me Lips brush mine, a fleeting kiss A promise of eternal bliss My breath escapes me in a hiss The echo of a dark abyss Time runs from me The sun burns at me Stars fade from me You change on me I look as you glance back at me Sorrow swirling in the sea Life and love come with a fee Your eyes cry a silent plea Time turns on me The sun turns from me Stars shine for me Change lives in me
