Timeless Time

It seems like yesterday That my birth was heralded With trumpets and fanfare I wonder how it’s all history No wonder the common dogma That time awaits no man Just like a snap of the thumbs Seconds tick into minutes Minutes expand into hours And graduates into days Leading into months And transcending into years What a sinking feeling To know that everyday draws you close To the inevitability of the grave Time drives the human existence It controls our minds immensely Like the emission of pressure cooking heats To the wise hearted Who know how time flies Such will utilize productively Because in no time at all Yesterday will all become a dream Making the ignorant today a nightmare Like a wind tomorrow will breeze past For the dumb and foolish minded Chasing the pleasures and ephemeral things To such a person’s dismay The time will have flown past And there will be no remedy To the crushing disappointments that lay awake
