As Time Goes By

1 of 3 poems written for a camp talent night.

Time - a never-ending story
There is no escape from it
For it is there around us
Recording the story of our lives

I started as nothing
But as time went by
I became something
However, all I did was cry

The years went by
I had grown by this time
Getting hurt a lot, bruises here and there
But heck, wasn’t too fond of lime

The months went by
Now a car I drive
My time is ill-spent
But hey, I feel alive

The days went by
So lonely, someone help me hide
All the pain, I could no longer bear
I slowly waited for the day I died

Time goes on without me
My story is now over
But I enjoyed my story
I thank you my Lord Jehovah
