Time

Time
Where does it go?
Can anyone tell me
Does anyone know?

We only hold so much
When will it run out?
I don’t have enough
Of that I have no doubt

The gentle breeze blows
Trying to reassure
But there’s something not right
Of that I am quite sure

I don’t have enough time
I know I never will
Time is such a burden
Until the day at last we’re still
