Time the vicious dog

Time the vicious dog

A Poem by copperconan
"

love sometimes can be so short

"

 

We knew this day was coming, the calendar’s so quick

time is such a vicious dog, so wise to every trick

his collar now has fallen ,so soon to say goodbye,

he wont allow no looking back, what we had must die.

 

the vicious dog is prowling, turning this away and that

the vicious dog is growling , there’s no way of going back

yesterday’s forbidden, today is in his teeth,

time is like a vicious dog, who’s always on his feet,

 

hurry now and take my hand, let’s promise to the stars

we’ll never love like this again, time will bury all the scars

 if by chance we meet again, time will know were only friends

turn around please don’t look back, it's  how our story ends.

 

We knew this day was coming, the calendar’s so quick

time is such a vicious dog, so wise to every trick

his collar now has fallen ,so soon to say goodbye,

he wont allow no looking back, what we had must die.i

Interesting subject here...love the metaphor!

Time...like attraction...is so fleeting! No sense dewelling on a love gone wrong, when there are so many other possiblities that lie ahead.

As for time itself...that's something we can't hold back no matter how hard we try, so let's live life to the fullest...we do not pass this way again!

That was such an amazing poem! It's very sad, but so true. You did a great job comparing time to a vicious dog!
