Time To Go

It's as if the sun had never shined
as it wrapped around the mires
the echoes off the cobblestone
the concrete crackling and cracking
both below and up above

the glug of death dissapated
drowning in the hands of time
and I admit I was almost out of time
one hand on the shovel with blood
dripping down unto the grave

grave it seems, the darkness, knocking
at all hours, unless silenced
and silenced it often was
the elixir of love ingrained
no explanation, a truth insane

I carry no burden, as if nothing underwhelms
I drift off into the unknowns
and when it's time
we all are left to go

Eventually the bell tolls for all of us...a great piece of existential ink Tim.
Cheers...Harry

I`ll swallow
my pride
to add in spite of
my feelings
to whom I don`t
care much for ~

``he`` does
have a way to
inspire, doesn't he?

now onto you, luv ...
I love when you
step out
of your comfort zone
to create something
so un`like you.
The references
indicated here
not only depict regret
but hope
in spite of the death
we all
feel inside
from time`to`time;
sometimes life
doesn`t actually begin
early on, but
much later
