Acceptance of Time

O’ time, you’ve cast your spell on me

I’m the derelict of your sands

and in auspicious fancy,

I sequester my demands…to you.

 

How you taunt me aimlessly

with your endless ebbs and tides

shifting like the ocean waves

through all my days and nights.

 

What if it were, I’d bottled you

and held you for eternity

like Pandora’s box, you’d escape

Like a genie, you’d be freed.

 

So time, play on your gentle reed

through the streams of life you’ll flow

and in a simple hourglass,

Your sands impart my soul.
