TIME

You are a most cruel angel

Disguising yourself in early years

You left us hungry, desperate and pressed towards every discovery.

IN TIME

Our impatience shattered every innocence

And in our haste we destroyed that which we can never hope to know again

So we locked away our thoughts in an effort to avoid further consequence.

THIS TIME

You bring your nostalgia in rainstorms

Terrible torrents of places best kept unremembered

I will not go gently into your greedy hands

For every moment in which you carry me backwards

Is another moment stolen.
