Time Flies
I knew that when I first saw you time had stood still for us to meet
I glanced as you and you glanced at me and for a second our eyes met
Yet no words came out of our mouths
Each second, each minute went by laughing at us because we looked like lifeless dolls
Time told me to hurry up and say something because the sun was ready to go to bed
Time was our enemy, our foe, our destroyer
Our nerves wrecked and our minds raced as time took its toll
Staring at each other silently anticipating the next move
All of a sudden, time told the sun to sleep
The moon and the stars filled the night sky
You left with an empty look on your face and I in that instant and I knew time had won
The seconds came back, still laughing, flashing those few short memories we had together
That was the last time that I had seen you
Clear, vivid images of your face still appear in my head
It brings back so much pain but the pain is sweet and everlasting
But I can still hear the seconds and minutes taunting and teasing waving their banner of memories
