Time Passing Through

Can't the future just wait?
Can't we pass the obstacles we await?
Could we fool and dodge fate?

They say the future is happy and bright.
But I can't help but worry at night.
Life is like an endless fight.

You fight to live and survive.
Or just sleep peacefully through the night.
Which one you get is not under your control.

We just want to savour the moment.
And not let the bad thoughts of the future take toll.
When you suddenly see the red lights.

When you went through all the struggles and fights.
I can't just decline decisions when life gets strange.
I have to make plans,with time arrange.

For no moment lasted forever.
But maybe we can try and pause it,however.
How,you may ask?

It could certainly be a task.
Maybe by wearing a facade,a mask.
Or just lay in the sun and grass.

Go outside on strolls and cool air.
Without any worries or flair.
They tell you,move on.

The moment had passed,the emotions long ago.
Yet you try to forget,but your mind takes toll.
It's like keeping an old,childhood doll.


You wanted to pause and relic its beady eyes.
Sometimes to help ourselves,we sleep and fantasize.
Where then we enter the dream world,full of wonder.

With sunshine and children's laughter.
Where linger memories,new and old.
When you were happier,and so much more bold.

They ask you,why do you spend so much time?
All of our lives,pretending it's fine untill it's nine?
Where is the river that will take us to the right path?

And how do we escape time's wrath?
Should I go with my gut and choose a door?
Or become a puddle of ink and collapse on the floor?

I am not sure where to go.
Anywhere,uncertainty does follow.
The past is clear,and the future is near.

Wasting our time on Earth by living in fear.
So,oh time,guide me.
Which path do I take?

Or will I become a puddle and drown in a lake?
Nobody can escape fate.
But to change the future,it's not too late.
