I close my eyes for what seemed a minute

But was actually ten

Time grabbed my hand and dragged me along

He knew nothing about the moments that life has shown

All he knows is to continue forward with haste

Watching life go by at a fast pace

He waits for no one

He keeps running through life and death

And does not stop to wonder what comes next

For a moment I paused to see that time has flown by in a breeze

Wishing that life would freeze

He has forever but we do not

Time knows we want more of him

So he walks just a little faster

Jumping through our day as if nothing matters

Time has just a little anger

Because we treat him as a waste

He conceals his feelings

And ends the life race
