Time

The future approaches, relentless and steady,
One second per second, forever it’s ready.
Behind lies the past, unchanging and still,
A canvas of memories, of choices and will.

Trapped in between, I find myself here,
With you by my side, as we face the frontier.
Together we stand, at the crossroads of time,
A journey uncharted, a mountain to climb.

Hand in hand, we’ll stride through the haze,
Crafting our story, in these infinite days.
No matter the trials, together we’ll face,
The future and past, intertwined in embrace.
