Time OUT
Location
Tick tock the clock keeps going
The sand in the hourglass keeps flowing
No matter how much sand there is
One day it will run out
Then what
Will reminisce
On what we miss
Or find a new clock to tick
Will we float in the wind?
Blowing the leaves off the trees away
Fill the cold air with our breathless breaths
Have the air give a chill to our loved ones
While their memories of us warm their hearts
One day all our time will run out
It doesn’t matter
We can’t compare
Some have forty-eight hours
While some can be here for ninety-five years
Wanting what others got
Why is that?
Is it because
Once we have it
We no longer want it?
Jealous; wanting others’ lives
Not realizing that the persona you see
Is their disguise
Only the grand creator’s real eyes
Realize what truly lies inside
Life is like a book – you know the ending to
But the covers are strange
A book covered with rainbows and flowers
But the words inside are of buried roots and rain
Making the pretty picture you see on the cover
You don’t even know that
That diamond on your ring
Was a piece of charcoal long ago
Buried in dirt
To become the beautiful gem on your hand today
Life is a game
The greatest won
You can have a great time
Going along the board
But it’s the same start and ending for everyone
The rules are never the same for any two people
It doesn’t matter how long you play
Only how you play
Don’t let it play your
If you don’t like the rules
Make your own
If no one likes your way
Play alone
Everybody will hate when you go up the ladder
But laugh when you go down the chute
Everybody and everything will have their time shine
The candle stick with the brighter shine
Will have less time
Seven billion people on the planet
One day everyone will have their last
What will happen then?
A question has been unanswered since the beginning of time
I guess we will have to wait and see
We can wait a lifetime to find out
Since we will have eternity
Not trying to be gloomy I’m just saying reality
Today we are wasteful of EVERYTHING
Concern only about money
While the only thing we can’t pay back
Is flying passed
Once it’s gone it will IT IS GONE
It will never come back one moment never happens twice
Don’t be upset and regretful now
Overthinking how you could’ve played the game better
After the game [life] is through.
