I

She waits for no one

I'm after someone new...
Pardon me...
I shifted my attention to someone else...
She's not new...
I was bound to her at the moment of conception...
She's always trevaling...
Moving like the river...
Never to flow back...
Where she goes I follow...
After a thousand mistakes and a million regrets
She never took me back to undo or remove any
After a thousand smiles and a million achievements...
She never took me back to those moments...
A few of these moments are frozen in pictures...
I kept looking back but she never once did
She never once asked me if I want to go back
All she offered me was a million opportunities
A million routes and obstacles
She has no mercy
She took away my grandmother
My uncle
My childhood
My toddler years and my teen years
And she never apologized
She never had a face until people realized her worth...
But now her face is just for showing and telling
My heart beats with her
She has no emotion nor a soul
She has no feet but yet she moves
If I forget to pay attention to her she flies
Now I'm moving with her...
Dancing...
My heart beating in two while hers beating in one...
She's leading...
Even when I'm tired...
She keeps on dancing...
Never to stop...
Unless I ask her to read with me...
And when I'm asleep she keeps moving...
I only wake up to run after her again...
And when I done with my journey shes leaves me at docks and off she goes sailing away with the sun following it to dusk...
With others following her...
Until they can no longer keep up with her...
Her name is Time...
And she waits for no one...
