Time
Time tried to wait for you
She spoke to her seconds
Persuaded them to move slowly
But nature knows best
So you smiled and embraced time
As time sat heavily on your shoulders
Your face grow weary
And as much as you tried
To rub the lines off your face
Time grow ever so persistent
She tracked across your face
And drew her precious contours
Through your struggles, time remained true
She was faithful and never left your side
She was precise and vigilant
She stole no second from you
Or awarded you extra
She taught you how to manage yourself
She taught you patience
Persistence through all those long hours
She taught you habit through repetition
And crafted you, moulded and made you strong
So, you are not to blame time
You are not to waste time
You are not to take time for granted
Thinking you stealing or saving it
Your allocation is just right
And within this life time
You should make the best use of your time
Every moment, every foot step that you take
Because you can never get time back
