Time is a puzzle that we try to solve,
With pieces that are given every day.
We try to make them fit, and evolve,
And create a life that's rich in every way.
It steals our youth away,
A river that never stops, night and day.
It flies by fast, we can never slow,
And leaves us with memories that we show.
It's like a clock that ticks without a pause,
And every tick, a second gone astray.
We try to keep it, hold it close, because,
It holds the key to our future, come what may.
We chase it, try to keep it in our hands,
But like the wind, it slips through our grasp.
It teaches us to live life as it's planned,
And not to waste a single moment clasped.
It brings us joy, it brings us tears and pain,
It brings us love, and it brings us strife.
It shapes us, molds us, and helps us gain,
The wisdom and the grace to lead a life.
So let us not be ruled by time's disdain,
Let's make the most of every single day,
For it will never come again,
And all we have is now, so make it play.
