Time - My Muse

As I stand on the shore

Reflecting on everything

Happening in and around me

I know he has the answer

I know he has the solution

But He was silent without motion.

I had cried and screamed

Begged on my kneels

Tears rolling down my cheeks

He stood still with the same smile

There silence in the air did not retreat

I threatened to kill myself,

I threatened to run away,

I threatened to retreat from life's way,

I threatened to not care,

I stood alone with only my shadow to spare

He continued to remain a mystery.

Broken heart,

Tear strained cheeks,

Weakened shoulders,

Weary feet,

Empty hands,

I stood like a shell

Only to be brushed aside by

Another wave…

Time - the man I wonder;

Has an answer to all my questions

But still remains quiet and unmoved

Unshaken and unaltered.

With every passing day

With every minute I am gifted

Everything changes.

Time has its own way,

And I realized the game

The best I could do

Was to let it be the same.
