Time is not our enemy.
She does not take away
The softness of the sun,
Or snow on a winter’s day.
Time is everlasting,
Her presence brings us peace.
And through Life’s many changes,
Time will never cease.
Time will always heal
The scars we leave behind.
Or things beyond our control,
That fester in our minds.
Time is filled with knowledge
For there is nothing she has not seen.
No lesson she has not learned,
Or place she has not been.
Time is not like us.
She does not stop and fear,
That all the days and months,
Will take away the year.
Time is not our enemy,
And so it might appear.
Until the day we realize,
That she’s no longer here.
Soon Death will come from shadows,
to steal away the light.
To take with him what Time has given us,
Into the empty night.
