That Which We Were

time creeps by unnoticed until age

races by a little quicker...  we look

back and wonder how...  and sometimes

why...  but we never seem to fully grasp

the concept of the immortality of gods

we previously worshipped...  time

moves in discreet concentric circles

from the center of it all outward and

when those rings return to their origins

we have an anomaly, not a paradox...

our future looks backward to our past

imagining one day it will catch up but

our present know that tomorrow

always end up as today's...   forcing

us to remain where we are, watching

time stream by us as if we were never

there, teasing us to reach out and stop

its progresses or at least slow it down...

moments become decades when the

end is finally attained and we have no

choice but to accept fate...  saying

goodbye to that which we were.
