Time flies
Just like the dragonfly only
I saw
Turn the hands back
The sand stops falling
Too me it’s there
And then
It’s not

All the wasted minutes
The precious seconds
Every day is gone in twenty-four hours

Turn the hands back
The sand stops falling
Tick-Tock Silent
Slow it down by
Stalling

All the wasted minutes
The precious seconds
Every day is gone in twenty-four hours

Dawn is welcomed
Midday is always near
Dusk is constant
Midnight is feared

Time flies
Too me
It’s there
And then
it’s not

One moment you see
And then
it’s gone.
