Am I in the back of your mind?
Do you think I follow behind?
Are you scared of my presence?
Worried of my sour essence?
I'm here to take your friends away,
Starting with the eldest, day by day.
Everyone you've ever known,
Will be taken until you're all alone.
I'll get you too, when it's right.
When the time is far from bright.
I'm guilty for your lasting pain.
There's nothing from this I really gain.
Do I have a face?
Is it snowy lace?
Colours sucked from me,
Black cloak drapes despairingly.
All I know
When I meet life, slow,
I'll save you from the horrors within.
Reunite you with your kin.
You don't know which will be your last breath.
Wait and wonder... I am death.

Look and look and never find. Cloudy shadows fill your mind. Inspiration hides in your eyes. Love laces all your lies. Find your love and hold them near. Keep them close and hold them dear.

Seduction of Time
I lie naked next to Time, His fingers gently entwined with mine, I kiss his chest softly, "You must want me awfully," He chuckles, as I mumble sweetly, Of how I love him so completely, I treasure...

Time
Time is eternal, yet our share is not. As sure a flower will rise in spring, with floret each lush in violet; ‘twill wilt and tarnish in autumns wing.

Time To Play
Play with the dragonflies, Before forever dies, The world is too late to save. Why can't we live in peace, When all too soon we'll cease. To enjoy the life we crave.
