Time So Bittersweet Poem by Donald R Wolff JR

Time, so bittersweet
She sits beside me
All look ahead for, time to keep
But time, she still won't find me

In mind, she sings a lovely song
A tempo played like a recording
An abyss of what may or may not be
Without concern or heeded warning

She wakes us from no time, forgotten
To the roads of gambled, fate
Choose a path for which, one follows
Time, she'll never wait

Grant my wish to never sorrow
Our juncture will take away the peace
Don't bring onward thy path to follow
Eternal rest is all I seek

Call not with, song, or wondrous dare
I shall not lead thee to my keep
For what I am, is not tomorrow
Lay my way, for endless sleep
