Tick Tock Goes Time
July 20, 2011
A minute…an hour.
A chocolate…a flower.
A day…a week,
To find what we seek.
Only one thing stands in our way;
A merciless beast who comes day by day.
Trees crush, petals die;
All for the beast named time.
A minute…an hour.
A chocolate…a flower.
A day…a week,
To find what we seek.
We cannot win,
For time is a hidden sin.
It takes us, it beats us.
It takes us, it eats us.
A minute…an hour.
A chocolate…a flower.
A day…a week,
To find what we seek.
