The reflection of time
Time is only
a continuous
mocking mirror
that forever
reflects
back to when
your feebleminded
feet timidly took those
first noble steps
down that
illustrious isle
towards intimacy .
But then your mind
murmurs back into the
pitiful present realms of reality.
Leaving you
to cower
and cry
still wondering
where the time went by .

Enigmatic...
and in keeping with my present mood. Time, it flows back and forth; yesterday, tomorrow, and today is static. ~ Geez.

TIME
only flows forwards till such time as you say leaves behind memories only Time and again we say
TIME AND TIDE
wait for none
nor you nor I
we all one day just go
without saying
HI OR BYE
time simply flies
any way
WELL DONE

For sure,
time is precious ! Time waits no body but we wait for it.
I liked how you personified this line:
"Time is only
a continuous
mocking mirror... "
