Time

Time

All I need is more time


I never have enough

Can’t do what I want

I wish for it every day

So I could do more

I say


I’ve wanted time for friends

Time for family

Time for others

I wished

Their time didn’t end


Others worry about time

Time they have left

Time for activities

Just more


All it is is more

More doesn’t change

Doesn’t change the pain

That never goes away

From time unspent

Unused

Repent

Hey


Here I speak my mind

Thoughts that might be

A little less kind 

But you

You relate

Your time

Our time

We all see it coming

We know the clock

It’s ticks numbing


Our life

Our past

Our present

What the future could hold


We are told

“Take your time”


But why care

When our lives are crammed 

To the brim

We all sit and stare

As the clock ticks 


Hours

Minutes

Seconds


Down


To when our last moment is left


There never feels to be enough time

To wish for more

It isn’t a crime

But time is relative

Live in the now

Now as I say


“Take your time”


Because I have seen pain

Most have felt it

Moments only last

When you make the most of them 


Don’t let

Your time 

End, get

Moving now


Never

Lose

One

Bit
