Value of Time

Tic Toc, Tic Toc….. ahhh time

Time, going by at an unstoppable pace,
Time, leaving without a clue, or any trace…

Time, how so cruel and how so evil,
Time, can be boring but often a thrill…

Oh happy times, warm and comforting, so nice,
Time, valued very little, but has absolutely no price…

No one can afford time; but eventually they will pay,
Time, every one will finally run out of it, one day…

Time, like a raindrop falling from the sky,
Time, like the drop will go by in just a short sigh…

Hold your hand out, spot and catch that drop,
Time, like the drop will vanish with out a stop…

If that drop passes you and hits the ground,
Time, like that drop will leave and never be found…

All that is left of the raindrop is a wet spot,
A memory, that is exactly what the wet spot is…

Memories can mean a lot, but they are a small shine,
Time, the real treasure, so precious and hard to find…

Think of the memories, think of the past,
Time, like the raindrop is going by, fast…

Time will go, and it will leave you in the dust,
Catch time, will you fail, you must…

Waste time, kill time, and let it go by, there is no fine,
But, just remember the end of time is not really kind.
