With ever escaping breath
Moments pass by
A date in time stuck out
With no reason why
A purpose in a single pause
Forgotten for it's flaws
Casting not a shadow on the past
But lurking in tomorrows blast
Learning lyrics to a song
Counting stars all night long
Random acts just to waste time
Waiting for another rhyme
Polishing up on distant affairs
Seeking out the worlds billionaires
Dusting off the books of history
wondering about tomorrows mystery
Forgetting the reason and in time the thought
Fighting for the season and the feelings it brought
Frozen in a moment left better off alone
Sometimes wishing you'd had a clone
Crystal tears stain the eyes
Waiting for the strength to rise
Quivering lips and limbs the same
Knowing you'd hate who you became
With a broken heart that sat alone
It's cuts and stitches had finally shown
A timed smile begins to spread
Broken quickly, with cut thread
Look back not, nor forward to far
Take time out to know who you are
Cry but not with the world watching
Smile but beware the strangers crossing
A few simple lessons
Facts scattered in the dust
Perhaps to late, or just soon enough
Try to remember even if the mind is full
This wisdom could comfort
Even a fool
