Time

        they have chased you            
        from doing
        what you are
        best able to do.                                
        they have made you
          run 
          from
        the reality you                         Time
        would have created                      has put
        to the age-old reality                  its web
          that produces runaways.               upon us
        S T O P !                               and what as fate
                L O O K !                       sees to be
                        &                       MUST be.
                   L I S T E N !                  yes
                             SEE                  Time 
                             don't              has thrown
                              see.                its web upon us
                                                  and life
                                                has spun
                                                  its curse.
                                                where to?
                                                does it make a difference,
                                                  Time?
