Where Has All the Time Gone

it has passed time I mean 
the mere panting chanting 
of love songs why healing 
has occurred after meaningless 

processing emotions in a bottle 
awaiting a more fitting time 
to explore the clocks again 
the hour glass the pocket watch 

the mere coo coo clock chims 
over city hall the ball dropped 
the rocket exploded in mid air 
explaining gravity through 

painstaking memories left 
dangling on a light string 
revealing the ticking heart 
counting down life's long
 
energies of love laughter fear 
face to face with a shiny new year
