Time Away

I'm lost in what seems reality
a strong sense of vitality 
youth and ignorance lost
hard lines stand where once was soft
I'm chasing time
it seems a crime
nothing to even find 
yet still i lag behind
the air i breathe is tight
little to see with little light
sending small children in to fright
as thet fly off into the night
still stood staring at the seconds before
the past is forgotten, forever more
