Time



"The greatest part of our happiness depends on our dispositions, not our circumstances." Martha Washington



Time’s fool I am—
I have always been
Seduced by its imprecision.
Adept at denial
I can’t reconcile
Its power over my vision.

Days I squander
In childish wonder
Pursuing some irreconcilable truth.
Faithlessly wanton
Hope misbegotten--
Vestiges from a soul-shattered youth

Trust misguided,
Innocence spited,
Wounds too deep for time to heal.
Enigmatically alive,
The imperative to survive,
Transcends a dubious will.


Song of the day: Time Is by It's A Beautiful Day
