In Time.. Poem by Gamaliel Scipio

In Time..



In Time.


So much of

a human's life

Is spent

chasing that

which is not

there, ghost!

We keep on

Forgetting

that it is

our story

This world needs

to hear of

the most

From birth we

kept following

everyone,

listening to

everything

they say

Beating ourselves

up believing

that no one

listens to prayers

We need to

notice

For how long

night has been

chasing the day

While never

complaining

just obeying

and following

That which he

believes

whoever's in charge

of existence says

We have even

failed to notice

how often

The sun comes

out to play

Then quickly

she hides

A sign the moon

is on the way

throughout

their lifetime

trees gives up

many a seed

Humankind spends

a lifetime

Still not knowing

the difference

between what

he wants

and that which

he needs.



In Time.
