Time~

Time is ever consistent.
So many things,
good and bad,
can happen in time.

I wait my time here.
With a restlessness,
wishing an hoping,
Praying,
This time,
time
will be on my side.

Washing away hard,
bad memories.
Alas,it also takes away
my most precious ones too.

Bad times overtake us all.
Children dying
Business burning
War
Running in fear
Homelessness
Parents always working
Divorce
Loves lost
So much and yet,
still this is not all.
Time will continue
to work it's magic.

Those good times
always come to mind.
Time stops as we reach
and grab those flashes.
Birth of your first child
That first car
Graduation
Oh yes, that first kiss
Leading to so much more
Parties with friends
Getting that big promotion at work
Mamaw tellin ya *back in my day*
That smile, your *one* gives you
These things and so much more
just sticks in your mind.

Memories like these you return to
time and time again.
Knowing that they can never
be replaced.
So much to live through.

Not enough yet, I say.
We live for that one more day.
That one more special thing
that will touch your heart
and dive into your soul.

Time passes no one.
We all know this for a fact.
The best thing about this,
is to grasp each second of each day.
Make it yours,
thoroughly
and completely.
Enjoy every sight,
smell
and feeling.

For who knows
what time will bring,
tomorrow~
