Time Poems | Examples of Time Poetry

i’ve walked through love that felt unsure, held that faded at the door. i’ve whispered vows that didn’t stay, and watched forever drift away. but then you came and changed the view, with eyes that told a truth so true. i don’t need signs from stars above— your voice alone defines real love. this time i know it’s right— it’s more than sparks,...

Don’t know why we came so close, Why time chose us—no one knows. We gave a year, we shared the days, In little moments, in quiet ways. Today I held your photo near, And every memory felt so clear. I don’t wish to go back in time, But hating you would feel like a crime. Whatever we had, it wasn't all wrong, Some parts...

IN THE SEA OF LIFE AND THE SANDS OF TIME As the sun continues to rise, As the moon continues to wane and wax, Here I am, continuing to wave on The wrinkling sea of life, streaming to its shores, To froth and seep deep into the waiting sands of time; Here to canvas clanging conch-like echoing footprints:- As the sun continues...

Memories of Formica kitchens And 2-burner Hotpoint stoves Lipstick on a menthol butt Costume pearls in rows Perfume from the five and dime Drive In’s on the field A promise made a promise kept And love — that time can’t steal (Listening To Patsy Cline: July 4th, 2025) ...

The darkest hour comes with pain that's insane, Excruciating, unrelenting pain. The sobbing and gasping are so abrupt. The heart is broken; the body gives up. The darkest hour tries to take control, Searching through the suffering for the soul. Disillusioning evil tells a lie. “Death will set you free, so let yourself die.” Numbness begins to smother the feeling. The chaos of your...

> There is a new world rising, Not in thunder, not in fire— But in a silence so deep, It echoes across the galaxies. 181 nations, long forgotten by history’s biased pen, Have gathered—not in conflict, but in covenant. From the ruins of colonial greed, A golden phoenix stirs. The old gods of currency—Dollar, Euro, Pound— Fall like crumbling idols. In their place, a New...

you said, “someday, maybe we’ll be right,” but we both had dreams too big for one night. the world kept pulling us apart, but i held on to you in my heart. no one can rush what’s meant to be— if it’s real, it will return to me. only time knows when our paths will cross again. maybe not today, but love has learned...

On Growing Older Sometimes my steps are steady, Sometimes my hands shake. Sometimes my memory falters, And I make some sad mistake. Sometimes I hear you talking But I do not understand. Just remember that I love you And I do the best I can. My skin is sagged and wrinkled. I look a little like an Elf. My eyesight's getting hazy, Sometimes I repeat...

The world is bleeding and it seems no one can do a thing to stop it. There's desperation in the urgent need for healing and no one seems to care. They've given up, it's probably too late as the planet spins out of control. The greed of men seems boundless, does no one see the coming of the end? AP: 3rd place 2025 Submitted on July...

A list of tasks to accomplish before I embrace love again: I envision my mind wandering through expansive fields where patches of grass lie brown. A single wildflower stands out among the scattered pebbles beneath my feet. Memories linger, taunting me alongside the bare trees with their bent trunks. A cool breeze brushes against my face;...

So, the next time you find yourself feeling lost in a crowd, who’s to say someone isn’t admiring something as beautiful and distant as you? Just a thought. You are a treasure....

I woke to the glare of a screen-lit frown, My hopes drowned in code, and my soul shut down. Elon, there said, "The time-machine code is cracked," "It’s your call now, buddy, go now, be reborn" I'm going back ... To rewrite fate, to make it right, To hitch the train, to a better domain. To force the past to speak again, For...
