Trapped in Time

If time is of the essence, then every second is precious, every tick and tock is filled with lessons that make the lost moments more reckless, moments yet to be reached become more selfish, minutes in ecstasy devour days of reflection creating a void of wasted time, something so misunderstood until you lose it, a tool of torture locked in every living heart, wrinkles of wisdom weaken pride and vision until there's nothing left to see but Father Time's victory, cherished histories become sad memories as desires increase with the knowledge of living, hours of solitude feel like an eternity when the scale of time measures the blink of an eye in centuries, if tomorrow is not promised and yesterday will truly be missed, then today becomes a dangerous dish that must be consumed with bliss, what time is it, help me track these flashes of monumental insignificance, years of thoughtless existence compared to weeks of satisfaction throughout an entire lifetime, exciting expectations become a lifeline that keeps me alive and kicking, but simple reality keeps me caged in a continuous loop of time
