Time isn’t on our side

Time seems irrelevant

Passing us by each day

As we lose touch with friends and loved ones

Somewhere along the way

Then a message on the wire tells you some of them are now gone

And it takes you back to time with them

That you had let go and forgotten

But then the heart is punctured at the fondness for them and the loss

Then you realise how short time actually is

And it is something we’ve not got enough of

And it’s important that special memories and people

Should never be forgotten or lost.

  1. Poetry often reflects real life… if this is the case here, I am so sorry for your loss… it’s always very jarring and painful, to lose a friend, no matter close or far away. 😭💙🔆
