Time (2021)

Venus shining in the evening
twilight glowing in the sky
the Sun has set and light is leaving
the spinning Earth as time slips by

every hour and each minute
breath by breath by breath it goes
time's an ocean, we're all in it
moving with it as it flows

from long before the beginning
to long after we are gone
whether losing or when winning
time is neither right nor wrong

time is timeless when in between
when we leave and we return
a disappearing endless stream
time is something which we learn

is the measure of our changing
life's unfolding mystery
every moment rearranging
what we believe, who we can be

when Sun has set and light is leaving
twilight fading in the sky
Venus shining in the evening
on the Earth as time slips by
