Time is a strange thing
slowly flowing down down down
rushing away in a breeze
Time heals heartbreak
changes a person
for better or worse
leaves you bleeding
until the day
when enough time has passed
Time catches up on you
dancing like a carefree child
then slouching like an exhausted teen
Time is a warning
all lives come to an end
all people say goodbye to loved ones
sometimes time is awful
you end with time running away before you are ready
not able to say those words
missing the chance to say goodbye
But I think time is a magical thing
I show the scars of time in my brown eyes
all my heartbreak and all my healing
the trials of growing up
and my parents love
