Time

Time is a massive, moving wall; as tall as it is thick...
You can't go around , or even see over it...
It's a mindless, ever-migrating force, that will and can never stop...
It's an abstract reality with no defined bottom, sides, or top...
The older I get, I am more aware of it's ominous presence...
I will remain defiant till my last breaths as I finally smile with acquiescence....

"The older I get, I am more aware of it's ominous presence..." This is very true. Really nice write. :) "They say time is the fire in which we burn."
