Time's Own Struggle

There's so much of it, more than anything else

It's dominance is clear that it cannot be stopped by anything, even itself

Time stands alone, for itself is all it needs as we are intertwined within

The way Time moves, inconsistant with a system that has become broken

Time speeds up when happiness flows throughout people having fun

It all goes so fast, sadly in the arms of a loved one

It all ends so quickly, as it ends before you want it to because it all went so fast

Then you reach the final, bitter, complete end, and it all becomes the past

The spectators cry at the assembly of the death of the one you love

Another thing that ends quickly, they slowly become everything you think of

Time starts to move slower, watching your everything be lowered into the dirt

Every second seems to become an eternity the more it hurts

The pain passes so slowly making every agonizing second feel like death, as he flirts

As that too approaches slowly, Time now at a standstill because it can't stand it any longer

It slows down because its sympathetic, watching you it only wants you to become stronger

Why cant good times be slower and the worst times go faster?

Time contorolling the speed of it all, for it is the master

So if the the good times go faster, perhaps Time does not want you to see them

And the worst times may move slower because Time wants you to feel them

So is Time sympathetic to the situation or does it want you to slowly consume yourself

Your own emotions becoming more and more distressing towards your health

Time the Evil, Time the Friend,

Time, as we know it with no beginning or end

So what is Time, sincerely by feeling

The word may never know its whole, true meaning.
