Time
It can crumble mountains to their feet and turn the clock forward to people are nearer to their death
As a child, it seems like we have all the time in the world, and yet, as we grow, we discover that we have no time at all
It seems like just yesterday that I was a child, running through my lawn and climbing up trees to try and get closer to the clouds
Maybe yesterday was when I wasn't sure what was happening around me
All I knew was that I was a teen being thrown around in my life without any idea where to turn
And now, time has come once again
It seems like just yesterday that the pandemic had started, and yet, I feel as though it's been forever
For me, it's hard to believe just how much time has passed
As a child, I was worried that time wouldn't pass fast enough
But now I wish it would slow down
There are things that I wish I could have done, things that I wish I could have said
Sometimes I wished that I had a time machine so that I could go back in time to fix something that bothers me
And yet, time seems to know
I've grown with time and I've started to understand what's going on
I still dream that I've had more time, so I could do the things that I wanted without a care in the world for time management
But life doesn't work that way
So for now, until I figure everything out in the little time I have
I think I'll just take a step
Just one foot forward
But that's all I need in order to progress forward through time
One second...
Two seconds...
Three seconds...
I think it's working ;)
