Poem: Time
I felt the passage of time
More strongly than ever
When I had peace and quiet
Enough to watch it
Drift through my fingers,
Enough for me to feel fine
About how fleeting it is
To be alive, how fleeting
It is to have time, to live
To let go of it, to live and
To be alive.

Poem: Temperance
Time seems to slip past me today,
Despite my attempts to not let it
Go to waste. There comes a point
Where there is so much to get done
That the rise and fall of the sun
Seems to be mocking me. Maybe
When the moon rises and raises
The tide to reach my toes, I’ll find
A kind of peace without pressure,
A kind of calm without calamity,
The temperance to not waste time.

Poem: Path
Walking along that fading road with you
Would have been, to my past self,
Enough to make my heart race for days
Before and after. My older self wonders
When this path will be paved over
To smooth out the scrapes left behind
By years of drivers who don’t look back.
