Time Goes Unseen

time goes unseen as it dances across the days unheard it sings a happy song unnoticed it soars above the sky untouched it innocently smiles piroettes of joy only when the music slows becomes aware across the room a stained glass mosaic then does a face surrender the hidden truth we look down at our dancing shoes stained and worn scuffed and scarred souls revealing all the miles not noticed before for why would secrets unvail amist young hearts where years are but pictures minutes only words faces once filled with dreams of light stare through fog covered memories with eyes of a child, astonished and bewildered how quickly the dance becomes a walk faultering upon the stones of the pathway the song loudly whispers as the silence grows the wind painting on a canvas of clouds watches the dancers pass as before time has hidden the steps again a tender waltz to romance a past moment around the floor abandoned only hope to hold on to lost in the eyes of a ghostly partner one last dance
