somebody once told me

our greatest enemy is time

those words had haunted me for ages

but now i understand them,

all too well  

 

time kills us

in the form of age and decay

time chases us

in the form of deadlines

time maddens us

in the form of boredom  

 

however, i also realized

that time can heal us

if we give it a chance

if we don’t let the demons win

and if we let them change us

for the greater good.  

 

i will be better.

i will be better.

i will be better.
