Time Got Away

Time got away


I got up this morning 

asking myself where'd time go? 

I then heard a noise outside my window. 

But when I looked down,

there wasn't anyone outside. 

Then 

something caught the corner of my eye.

Thats when I saw footprints 

of time leading away from the window.

 I thought to myself,

am I dreaming with my eyes wide open?

So I grabbed my cup of liquid sleep 

and headed downstairs 

to investigate further. 

I was shocked in what was before my eyes. 

It was a broken picture of me

from the previous night.
