Time

Time
Time can stop, start or continue
Time will tell, hush or lie
Time is responsible for memories and circumstance
Time aligned in circumstance can heal
Though circumstance denied by chance can wound
Wounds can dissolve in time 
Or last a lifetime
A lifetime can be a long time
Or no time
Which happens to be the time?
Past, present; future
Time

Enjoyed this poem on time. As they say time waits for no man. I did a poem called the concept of time. A subject I am interested in space and time. Phyl
