A LIMIT

October 22, 2018

We all run out of time

And that’s a fact

Everyone is a dozen in a dime

Death and love can’t be taken back


Don’t take my time forever

Or I'll end up in shambles

I want what's for the better

And giving up love is a gamble


Eventually I am going to rot away

Like roadkill always does

But I want you to stay


And then there were crickets…


Why are people running out their clocks?

Why, when time goes on?

I think its cus’ the pain doesn't stop

And their life has been on too long


“But could youth last, and love still breed,

Had joys no date, nor age no need”


So let your heart hang low

Then rise again

No secrets are bestowed

To starting a new end
