Yells our life’s clock,
Passing so quick,
Each rapid tick.

And I hear them every time I look behind me,
Seeing the past all a little bit clearer,
The haunting making it harder to find me.

Frost greeting each long-shadowed sunrise,
Days seem to be but a flashing of light,
Before again the cold and dark of night.

The glowing horizon of promise
The faint hues that portend
The first ray of sunshine

Memories now curled
Past a million words and yet
A mere peek into my world
