Time

Time oh Time, how you have become an enemy to me
The sands runs through the glass too slowly
The minuet hand assumes the pace of the hour hand
And the hour hand takes a millennium to complete rotation
The sun lazily climbs the steps into the sky and the 
Moon is stubborn to return with her children
Do you not want to see tomorrow like I do?
A whole new horizon to explore

i like how you expressed your thoughts in this poem. i would interpret this as someone who is already tired and bored of his life thus treating time as the enemy. sometimes life seems to be like a routine already and we would want to taste and experience adventure for once. love it! good job!
