Time is my enemy
He never stays long enough when I need him
Or he sticks around when he isn’t needed
Time is always galloping towards another dot on the clock
Never appreciating the moment
He never looks back,
To see what he missed
We are in a constant battle,
He always wants to follow the clock
I want to stay in the present
He takes away the people I love most
The friends I have to leave behind
And he takes away the memories
But time is also my friend
He gives me time to heal
And time to move on
The ability to appreciate the past
He gives me hope,
But he also gives me grief
