I think about time all the time
What it does and continues to do to my mind
Always believing that I was destine to be
GREAT one day
Just found out my niece is f_cking & has a baby
On the way
Soon to be a GREAT aunt someday
Time has its away
When I was 16 it was not so sweet
I went to sleep and dreamed
I would not live to see 17
When I was 18 I believed I would not live to see 19
I did not make plans for my 20th birthday
2 in half decades later sitting here scrawling on this paper
The silver streak sprouting from my widows peak
Bags under my eyes from restless sleep
The New Year caught me by surprise
Slept through it for the first time
No Hennessey, Champaign nor wine
Woke up in strange pain
The clock won’t stop
Trying to find the present time
The futures not mines
Slept through the fire
Woke up in the rain
Swam the sea of sorrow
To reach the shores of tomorrow
Change happened to me
In a pond of my reflection
Mama stares back at me
