She juggled her life
Made it fit into the day
Until, she ran out
Felled by wasted distractions
She squandered her existence

Time waits for no one, it’s just thrown away
A simple hour, quickly, turns into a day
Minute by minute, we forget before
What happens, when we want a little more
We sit and we wait, but it passes us by
Wondering how and not knowing why
We try to make it stay, a bit longer, but no
It reminds us it has a need to go
And just like that, we have lost it all
Zapped away, no matter how we stall
We’ll never believe it, though days are blown
Wanting only to remain, in our own time zone

How quickly
time passes,
hour by hour,
minutes fly.
and life with it.
Aging in years,
losing the seconds, in
those fleeting moments,
carelessly spent,
until the clock stops,
and time stands still.
As do I
