Listen

A Poem by H.J.Y.
"

There are times when i wish Time would just stop.

"

Time does not stop for the broken-hearted

Time does not halt for the strong

Beg as I might, it simply cannot

For Time has no ear to listen

 

I may scream as loud as I can

But it will not turn back to see

The crumbling chaos behind it

Or the ghosts that follow its trail

 

Yet above all Time has the heaviest burden

Carrying with it the past

The sorrows and cries from all who have left

Regrets from those in the now

 

This illusion that Time will heal all pain

Is nothing but a lie, a trick

Time cannot feel any emotion

So how can it take it away?

 

Time does not stop for the lonely

Time does not halt for the joyful

Ask as I might, it simply cannot

For Time has no ear to listen

"Time does not halt for the joyful"
Love that. It really relates to how as humans we take times of joy for granted
