The Beat Goes On

Time is not a priceless gem
one can buy or sell
and not a worthless trinket
as far as I can tell.


No, not like you or I dear,
forgiving but never rude ;
Hating to be toyed with,
misled or misconstrue d...


Yes, time can play a leading role,
life's most important part ;
Sometimes inconsistent
in matters of the heart.


One can't feel nor smell time,
it has no sense of taste
but for the most, keep this in mind,
It isn't ours to waste.

Time was invented by men
to control of its passing.

However, it seems to run on its own
even when we least expect it.
