Stolen

Stolen

A Poem by Diana

And I'm angry at the time
stolen from underneath my fingertips.

The things I am unable to do now...

Because these moments were taken,
stolen from me.

Stolen from me,
stolen from you,
stolen from us.

To steal from one, is to take from another.
How can we get it back?
For time has stolen this from me...

and yet 'they' (they being the physicsts and knowledgable ones) say time is a loop or series of loops and perhaps thats in evidence when our elders get sick with dementia and time kind of 'gives them back' the stolen childhood to relive. My own aunt and my friends aunt both behaved as children and remembered very very specific things from their childhood. Perhaps time is a bit like a banker holding some things in escrow because we cant manage to 'hold' it all.

Maybe there's a time in your life you assumed these moments were taken from you. Did you ever consider those moments were taken for granted and simply given away freely?

Your words are true.
"To steal from one, is to take from another.
How can we get it back?
For time has stolen this from me..."
Can't get it back my dear fiend. Dear Diana, with old age. I learn time is very valuable. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Thanks, again!
time in more ways than one can steal from us...aging, losing loved ones, but also timing...my strongest love happened when i was too young...and circumstances at the time got in the way of what could have been...it can be our friend but it can also steal from us...and i don't know how we can get it back...

a very moving write...
