Rushing and scurrying feet  

No time to dream again.

Soft rushes of breezing wind

Whispering: dream again.

Hearts pounding and rushing:

Won’t you dream again?

Shining and rushing rivers

Their calling: dream again. 

Unattended rushing thoughts

Stop and dream again.

Waves rush on sandy shores

 Heal and dream again.

Timeless words breaking hearts

Will you halt to dream again?

Time is a thief,
a tyrant,
cruel

Time is a friend,
a companion,
a rule

It rushes along
it hurries,
fights

And I don't really think
that this
is right

Shouldn't we take
all the time
we have?

Why shouldn't we stroll
instead of life
running past?

Time is a thief
that steals
a soul

Time is a tyrant
sitting on
its throne

Time is not about
to go
away,

But that doesn't mean
we have to
obey.
