Seconds, Not Years
Why do the hours, days, weeks, eternities pass so fast,
Never allowing my rapidly aging imagination
An awareness of where it's been and is about to be,
A chance to keep pace with the location of my soul,
Concentrate on the coordinates of my journey,
Make life my lasting friend, not a vague acquaintance?
I might be better qualified to enlighten myself
As to why existence disappears in seconds, not years,
If only I could know what time is running from.
