TIME TRAVELER
Moments die
Minutes pass away forever
Each separate second ceases to be
The hands on the clock lie to me
Memories lie
Time taken to die
The past lies within deceptive recollection
Faint phantoms of the past talk to me
Perpetual illusion
Only now is now
Tomorrow doesn't exist more than yesterday
And even present reality will soon pass away
Newborn infant
That child has died
What I was doesn't exist anymore
This was written with a dead man's hand

I don't even want to guess what time it is on Mars right now, but I have a feeling that's going to mess with some people some day. Bless them all

"Now is now"
No more fitting way to condense the illusion of time into two simple words .
We're already dead .
Great write archetype .
