Time is when you know that you’re mature
when you finally know how much to endure.
Time is when the new pictures look old,
When the sweet, new flowers start to grow…
Then, the flowers lose their sweet, new glow
Time is when you look in the mirror
And you notice the changes that occur…
People don’t notice time,
Till it goes and passes you by
The bittersweet kiss time blows your way
Till dusk arrives and chases the day away
A mothers kiss to a fathers bliss
Then feeling so overloaded like an oceanic abyss
Time is too big…time is so small
Time is super fast, then slows to a crawl
Siblings grow, mothers know
Fathers cry when you say goodbye
Time is infinite, time is limited
Time is a best friend’s commitment
Time is everybody’s enemy then time is everybody’s serenity
Time is full and empty, too
Just make sure time doesn’t fool you
