Its boundaries same to all yet varying in displacements
The universal factor condensing in its form
For a wary student in class, very slow
For a lad asleep on the hay, too fast
A realign of composure ordering man’s events into play
For the hawker, an endless trek of shouts, sweat and pain
Hoping at sun down, the pain would be repaid in gain
Each hour counting, history’s witness, penning issues deemed fit
Its entity relies on no stance
It regards no opinions for it is set like the rising of the sun even the seasons to reap or sow
It determines what tides are turned; and authority in itself
It shows no favours
Accomplishments are noted as a virtue of wisely turning time
Wasted nights, unclaimed prizes, a teary eye, stiffed pride
Daunting reminders of wages gotten from cheating time
Regardless of wishes, time once passed could never be reborn
It would be as futile as pushing back a shot bullet to cock a gun
Each minute a precious gift given to treasure
A mighty feat will be managing time to reap its bliss
Time misused could replicate thousands of skies heavy with fountains of regret
Pouring down with no shade to hide from the effects of being drenched in sorrow
When tomorrow hits the band-wagon of yesterdays
It is claimed time as way-laid by misfortunes of mistakes
The future duped by procrastination’s mob raping the essence of today’s success
A probable result of yesterday’s indulgence.
