Time Is A Coward Poem by shannon wright

Time Is A Coward



time is a cowardly thief

it creeps around

pick-pocketing the moments

and fly speck seconds

that make up a lifetime.

we beg for time to pass

courting only the future

and then mourn our loss

such fickle creatures are we

but as they say, time waits for no man.
