Time

What is Time?

We measure it in seconds, minutes and hours

But what is it?

It isn’t an object

It isn’t a person

And it isn’t a place

It can be stopped

It can’t be controlled

It can’t be sped up

It can’t be slowed down

People say “Time is precious”

People say “What a waste of time”

They talk about Time

As if Time has feelings

For children Time feels so much longer

For old people, Time has passed in a blur

A human life is measured in Time

And a clock can tell you the Time

Time has so much control over our lives

We can never stop it

We could never comprehend life without Time

But, I ask again

What is Time?
