NONSTOP
Not second to spare. Not a second to lose, not even a second that I can actually use. Time is a ruthless champion, no holds bared, against those that raise a bar to it. Time is not our enemy, we shouldn’t be racing against it.
Time is always flying
Invariably, rushing
In a race I'm always losing-
Just trying to keep up
Competing against the clock
Desperate not to fall behind
Losing track of all concepts in my mind
Losing control-
Spinning and crashing out
There's no finding rhythm in a race like this
A sprint without pitstops-
Nonstop
Not so sure I can endure
Unaware of what the gift holds because I'm never in the present
With all to lose
And nothing to gain
And not a thing to keep me sane
Time is a blur and I'm drawn to its limit's allure
Time is a currency, and at a time like this I might as well file for bankruptcy
Time is insufficient but not affecting the one and only omniscient
Time is impatient, without any remaining patients
Not the kind to make payments
A lump sum type of lottery we all have a draw in from birth
An hourglass that sits atop of the earth
We groan as the grains come down
And whine as the clock winds down
Always running out-
In need of more
Twenty-Four in a day-
It's never enough
I lost trace of my steps and forgot my pace
Lost in the blur of the lines crossing me
I can feel what's too fast for my eyes to see
I'm falling behind
Stuck to be catching up forever
In this race- I'm always losing
Rushing
When I shouldn't be competing in the first place
Just taking my-
Time
Father Time is an undefeated champion- whose never fallen out of first place
Always winning- but never our enemy
Always flying- on one-way tickets
A nonstop trip
To the very thing, I shouldn't be rushing
About the Creator
Josh Morgan
Personally, writing began as a creative outlet, to be a means of processing and venting emotion, but it has become so much more. Something I want not to be just relatable, enjoyable and a good read, but to reach someone who is in need.
