Time

I want to get a hold of Time and narrate stories to Time of how I did not want to see it grow before my eyes, from an innocent 9 PM to the ruthless 4 AM.

I want to kiss Time and introduce to it the essence of touch, So it can realise the beauty that exists in a frozen moment.

I want Time to fall in love with all that excites me, So it understands how lovely it is to dream of infinity; And how torturous it is to have that dream taken away.

But Time is a clock and Time is a watch –mould in silver, steel or gold.

Time is a clock, Time is a watch –mould in metal, hard and cold.
