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
