Time Passes By

Abstract Clock found on Eskipaper

Time passes by
For no reason
Without us truly knowing
From season to season
Hidden from the eye
In moments of treason
Always there and never slowing

Time passes by
Turning pages
Succeeding and foregoing
From ages to ages
Never asking why
Unhindered by stages
Never gone and always flowing

Time passes by
Theirs and our
Never undergoing
From hour to hour
Distant and nearby
Set to devour
To erase what it keeps growing

Time passes by
Never undone
Both obscuring and reshowing
From eon to eon
Faraway and nigh
Spinning and spun
Either stealing or bestowing
