The Trick of Time

Folder: 
Change

In every second, passes an hour

Time is the strongest, most frightful power,

Flying by, there’s nothing you can do

Life goes by, and time does too



Life always passes, year by year

Always going faster, really building fear

One day life will be over, at its end

My life will be there, at its very last bend



The end’s soon to happen, for time goes so quick

I’d have to say time, is the most terrible trick

Everyday passes, in just a flash

Another day begins, and leaves in a dash



I wish there were, a way to stop time,

Just like stopping, a blowing wind chime

Why can’t my life, just slow down

It goes so fast, making me frown



Life is a trick, you live and you die

Everything’s fast and wondering why

Change happens too, making it worse

Making life feel, just like a terrible curse



So in every second, passes an hour,

And time is the strongest and most frightful power

No matter what, there’s nothing we can do

so just enjoy the time, that is given to you

Wow! What an amazing read! This poem kinda describes how I feel sometimes. This poem is simple...straight-to-the-point.....and touches base on something that everyone can relate to.
