Time

Time started when you were born,
  your life bent and your heart slightly torn.
Into the world we all travel,
  Filling like fenced in cattle.
Yesterday a jumping baby boy/girl with high hopes,
  Today climbing the company latter with a bunch of dopes.
Tick-tock listen to the sound of the endless clock,
  Running to stand still  numb like a rock.
No time you say you don`t have,
  No time yet you say your glad.
You can call a time out,
  you can`t take time to pout.
Time flies when your having fun,
  To much time in the sun. 
I`m just killing time,
  waisting time,
      be on time,
           doing time.
Our clocks continues to turn,
  Look at the time you already burned.
We are bold enough to change time,
   But do we make the most of our time,
Then the time comes and you ask did I take the time,
Think about this moment  in time,
your time spent did you spend it blind?
