Best Matter Of Time Poems
Baby I know you miss
The way I kiss you head to toe
Caressing you and pressing you
So close so you would know
That if there came a moment
You and I would be apart
We’ll feel that same connection
Through the beating of our hearts
Like a hummingbird in autumn
Hovering on satin wings
We dance in life’s sweet nectar
And rejoice in all it brings
Because what we share is special
And will stand the test of time
A pact we made together
That will last until we die
So if you start to falter
Find your strength in these few lines
Because the shortest distance between us
Is really just a matter of time….
Fearful reflection
Will the time, once go away ?
Stop, at the end of the road ...
and nothing will last ?
- You can never own the time
Every second - one heartbeat
The time is ticking
Living life to the fullest -
in faith and obedience
You might not see it ...
Time has meaning and value
I ask, where does the road go ?

2nd place in the contest
broken spindle lay on its side
the stair rail weakened
Can an hour glass turn itself?
no one hastens the seeming repose
splintered spindle reclines in peace
raggedy doll's eyes are closed
and the hour glass gathers dust
objects jog her memories of a fight
spindle in one scarred hand
doll clutched in the other
she turns the hour glass over
day of new beginnings
Grief stricken days.
My depressed ways.
Love never stays.
My depressed ways.
Beyond the shadows that mirk lifelessly towards my essence, I knew it was just a matter of time before I would break.Too young to die. Too old to cry. Babies cry in need and I cry out of desperation. Babies cry for love and I cry for forgiveness. How do I let myself feel the freedom of my wrong actions? How do I abbreviate my life into two simple letters, “L.L.” This stands for “Lost Life”.
I’ve been lost and I’ve been found. I’ve found peace and I’ve fallen down. I began living miserably the day you died and I began to shut myself off the moment you cried. No life could be saved with a broken heart. A broken heart needs nourishment and I need redemption. I have sowed too many seeds of remorse and I have shown too many drives off course. For, my life is lost. I don’t know where to find my life. See, it has flown far away too long ago to remember. Even though I need happiness, I deserve the sorrow. Even though I crave desires of salvation, I deserve angst. I am not a young girl anymore. I am an adult with needs that cannot be filled without deep blue water. The water frees my insanity and I will no longer feel condemned. I was born to feel condemned. I was born to live miserably. I don’t deserve balloons and flowers. I deserve black clouds and sad days, lonely in crowds and bad ways.
Beyond the shadows that mirk lifelessly toward my essence, I knew it was a matter of time before I would break.

Time Is A Power-Tool of The Great Timekeeper
Time Is Like A Sentinel For Its Sequence Seekers
No Matter Which Way We Search, Time Goes Farther & Deeper
We Can Learn From Time - For It Is Like Its Teacher
Yes, JAH Is The Teacher & Time Is The Test
Time Is At HIS Leisure, HE Decides 'When' It's Best
Time Is The Measure of HIS Everlasting Address
Time Is The Treasure In The KING of Eternity's Chest
Existence Is Time's House & We Are But Guests
Time Is The Grace Period All GOD's Creatures Requests
Time Is Constant Motion - Not Suspended While Souls Rests
So Will Time Ever End? No, It's Too Well Kept !
Time Is The Vestibule Wherein All Journeys Unite
Time Is A Vehicle That Will Soon Open & Invite
Even Mankind Says Time - Drives At 'The Speed of Light'
( and for once human beings got it absolutely right! )
"Let There Be Light" Genesis 1: 3 Recites
& It Took Billions of Years For That Past Just To Reach Us
Through The Course of Time - Time Swerved To Meet Us
We Miss A Piece of 'Time' - Each 'Time' We Close Our Eyes
We're A Part of Time, For We Came By Its Way of Designs
Time Is Just A Peek Into The Mirror of GOD
Time Is Just A Look To Fathom Where GOD Has Trod
Full Time Is A Peerless Sight - Glorious To Our Gaze
Now, Its Time To Open Our Eyes & Be Amazed !
Immortal, Always, Infinite, Indefinite, Ever After
Never, Oblivion, or No More of Life's Next Chapter
Patience, Waiting, Expecting, Now or Later
Alive, Exist, Eternal, Becoming & Greater
Onward, Eternal, Eternity, Everlasting, Forever
It's All A Matter of Time - All Together
... A Day, A Week, A Month ... A Year
A Decade, A Century, 'Til Millenniums Draw Near
A Phase, A Cycle, A Term, A Season
An Era, Epoch, Ages - They're All Time's Beacons
Yesterdays & Right Now & All Tomorrows Combined
GOD Answered: 'It Is All Only My Matters of Time
All - Only A Matter of Time
and All Only A Matter of Mine ...

Oh, We Can Instant Replay A Recorded Movie Reel
But That's Not Even The Same Point In Time's Flowing Field
When Its Live Action, No Rehearsal & Reality
Time Does Not Repeat Itself - Like Our Errors In History
Each Iota of Time Carries On Individually
"... See There It Goes, Ooops There's Another, Look At Time Wink!
Every Movement, Every Action, Every Touch & Every Eye Blink
Even Every Stillness & At Every Thought We Think
It Is Faster Than Our Heartbeats
& Time Has No Twins, Nor Repeats"
Time Is A Magnet That Attracts To A Point
Time Makes Sure That All Occurrences Are Joint
Time Pulls & Pushes Us Into Position
(I Told You Time Is An Interval Thru Intermission)
From The Place of Conception Time Goes On & On
From A Place of Concealment - Time Had A Home
To A Place Far Away, Time Continues To Roam
And To Those Left Behind - Time Is Gone
Time Is A Rate Exchange & A Scheduler of Life
Time Is The Hugest Pie That We Try To Cut With Knives
Every Generation Endeavors To Eat Up A Slice
Yes, Time's A Precious Commodity Worth A Ransom Price
And Time Is Of Such A Tremendous Amount
That We Must View It In Parts To Bravely Number-Count
& I'm Afraid We Can't Calculate The Total of Time's Sum
'Cause We Have Never Found Where Time Started From
(Not Even When The Universe Begun)
So We Repeat It On Our Calendars, Clocks & Watch Faces
It's A System That Allows Us To Try To Find Time's Embraces
The Revolution of Planets & Night Sights Up In The Sky ...
Has Time In Every Formula As It Steadily Speeds By:
Mathematics Must Use 'Times' To Multiply
See, It's Only A Matter of Time
Before The Dark Gives Way To Day
It's Only A Matter of Time
Before All Wrongs Yields To Right of Way
It's Only A Matter of Time
Before A Gift Wrapped Box Is Opened
It's Only A Matter of Time
Before A Written Word Is Spoken
It's Only A Matter of Time
Before Youth Gives Way To Age
It's Only A Matter of Time
Before A Reader Turns A Book's Page
It's Only A Matter of Time
Before Lovers Share Some Token
It's Only A Matter of Time
Before Winter's Hold Is Broken
It's Only A Matter of Time
Before Grape Seeds Turn Into Grapevines
It's Only A Matter of Time
Before Same Grapes Become Fine Wines

The King Of Eternity Gave Me Laser Answers
So That I Would Know of All Matters
That It's All Only A Matter of Time
Yes, All Things Are Set In Time's Prime
Yes, It's All Only A Matter of Time's Size
It All Comes In The Frame As Time Supplies
The Past, The Present & The Future All Relates
It All Devolves Upon The Time That It Takes To Make:
Once Upon A Time:
One Drop of Water Pierced A Stone-Face Into A Smile
One Step Then Another Paced A Walk, A Million Miles
One Speck of Dust Then Another Made Earth's Mosaic-Tiles
... of Pebbles Into Boulders Until The Many Mountains Piled
& A Child Grew From An Embryo, As One Cell Multiplied
All In A Matter of Time's Length & Scope & Steady Strides
Once Upon A Time:
One Thread Joined Another Until Its Sewn Into A Fashion Style
& Years Reached The Hour's Stroke That Heralded End of Trials
Each Separate Instant As It Happened - Produced History's Files
See - Its All Only A Matter of Time, All The While
There Is A Time For Every Matter & A Time For Every Thing
It's All Only A Matter of Time's Space, Track & Sync
So It's Only A Matter of Minutes In The Continuum of Time
'Til We'll Meet The Moment - All Is Divine
Whether Its A Hard Conclusion or An Easy Climb
Whether Infinity Is Curved or In A Strict, Straight Line
Whether We Fail To Find Our Own Finally Arrived Sign
Or The Start & A Stop & In The Middle That Binds
Its All Only In A Matter of Time ...
Whether That's To Catch Ocean Waves or A Winds Cadence
Or To Fly Thru Galaxies By The Speed of Light's Radiance
Time Is Ever Moving Forward & Spreading In The Distance
Time Has No Break & Man Can't Hold Time With Resistance
Time Is A Touchstone, That A Traveler Uses As A Chart
Minutes Are Modes of Transport, In Time's Non-Stop March
A Moment Is Only A Motion, of Emotional Import
Yet Whether Its Digital or Analog or Of A Sundial Sort
We Can Touch Time - From Our Own Back-Porch
Time of Itself Is An Interval ... & Time Is A Track
One Can't Rewind Actions & Time Won't Run Back
(Unless of Course GOD Himself Designates That Act)
But Time Is Organized & A Tamper-Proof-Fact

if you dont hear me now
you'll hear me later
it's just a matter of time
before the melodious sound of that cello
finds its way into your heart
the purpose of those balmy afternoons
and those beautiful balmy evenings
with truth, love, and grace
it's just a matter of time
before you make the connection
between grace of self and grace of all
towards grace of one
humanity.
Uncle Eugene’s breaking down.
Murmurs come from the room down the hall -
Surgery. Blood clot. A third kind of cancer.
“It’s just a matter of time.”
But for now, I’m laying by the fire,
warmth seeping into my bones.
My grandparents are alive,
one falling into incoherence,
but not bad yet.
My mother is here.
My father is upstairs.
We are under one roof.
And I am escaping into a written world
by the warmth of the fire.
The world outside is cold,
and eventually I must face the chill
for the sake of my dog
and because time marches forever forward
with graceless strides.
But for once, my mind is calm,
and I will drape myself with this moment
when the wind picks back up.
She’s walking in the rain
Water inside her shoes
She Forget her umbrella
They forecast rain in the news
Sometimes she forgets simple things
Because her mind is far away
There’s man who holds her heart?’
Who lives in the U.S.A.
And he’s cooking this morning
And he burns the brown sugar
Because his mind is far away
Give his heart to a girl in Malaysia
And though they miss each other
And when they talk it feels so good
And one day they will be together
In theirs hearts it’s under stood
And sometimes it gets so lonely
And silent tears they cry
Can’t stop thinking about each other
No matter how hard they try
And they know how they feel
Want to spend their life together
And right now it’s so hard to do
But they’re willing to face any kind of weather
Knowing they will be in their arms one day
Makes the missing feels so right
Although knowing they can’t be together now
Keeps them awake almost every night
Right now the distance between them
Are out of their control
But every second apart brings
them closer in their heart and soul
She’s reach back home now
Comes out the shower, gets under her sheet
And as she falls a sleep
The fragrance of jasmines’ smell so sweet
He collects his burger at gyro king
Fast food restaurant on Forest Avenue
Tonight he will watch the dark knight movies
Part one and part two
And while she dreams of him
He thinks of her in his mind
And both knowing they will be together
It’s just a matter of time
It was on lucky thirteenth day,
Only few months into newest fray.
Whenever I’m alone,
As usually I am these days,
I make room to acknowledge
The weight of my own presence
By minding the tide of my breath.
It flows in on a four-count
With the ease of deliberate intent
Advancing toward its seawall limit.
It flows out on an eight-count
Revealing a beachcomber’s dream.
In that moment my mind envisions
Outstretched sands littered by time
With everything ever’s been lost
By all romantic searchers
Navigating treacherous seas.
It isn’t hard to feel unloved.
It’s easy as taking a breath and letting it go.
Letting go of everything
Is all one really gets to do.
It’s just a matter of time.
It was only a matter of time
Before times day was outnumbered
Everything must come to an end
And in the end time does too
So, time already knew this
But took its time with a grain of salt
Oh, I mean sand
Like an hourglass
Your time is at hand
Time comes to a stop not just dividend
Time wears its best face
So, like time be efficient or your time will erase
By Susan Mills
I've been living in the same place for seven years now and I haven't changed one iota.
I try to run away, find a new home and maybe you.
I found that God didn't want me to leave forever, better things maybe waiting for me somewhere, maybe near my beach. If daydreaming is a sin why should I stay awake? at this rate I can't even stand the rain or even seeing his face in my own dreams.
I just have to die, things sometimes get difficult to deal with.
My body is my church, an infinite fortress of scars, desires and secrets.
And if one day the idea of ??chasing the wind jumps again, bring me back to the ground, before I collapse without even having learned to properly fly yet
As I lay in bed relaxing watching you dress
There is something I should say that I can’t help but stress
The time spent together has been passionate and strong
But now things have changed and something’s wrong
I can’t tell you now because I know it will wait
I’ll do it soon, you know, I’ll just pick the date
I’m not sure how to say this at which place I should start
Because all I know is regardless it will break your heart
It shouldn’t come as a surprise we both know the score
We both had our own stuff; we tried but couldn’t give more
So I guess now it’s just a matter of time
Till you go your way and I will go mine
