Time Poem by Alexianna Brandhagen

We all say we know
what time is
but do we really?
Time is seconds
Minutes
hours
days
weeks
months
years
And at the same time,
there is no such thing as the separation
of time
to some,
it is an illusion,
something humans have made up to explain each passing moment
to others, it's the only thing that is real
It stretches on for all eternity
it always has been and always will be
and still, there is no future
no past
only the present
because the past is gone
and will never come back to us
and the future
shall never exist for us,
because the only thing
we will ever know
is the moment we live in
that disappears in the blink of an eye
and lasts forever, never to end
