Only time can tell,

whether those who promise us life

would be truly life

or death to us

Only time would tell,

if those who say they love us,

will hold on to us

and love us more each day

or would suddenly leave,

never to return.

Time holds all the secrets of our life

and all that is hidden from our eyes

Time alone can tell

About the Creator

Ewura Ekua Acquah

I grew up on popular story books; was greatly enchanted by the power of books to take you places you haven’t been before and live through experiences of the characters. I wish to take you on such journeys! Stay with me on this magical ride!
