Seconds
Minutes
Hours go by
But no one sheds a tear, no one dares to cry
The air stills, as the shadows loom over
Waiting for fear, waiting for horror
The sun is now nothing in the dark blackening sky
Like we've misplaced our future and no one knows where it lies
The tickle of the breeze
The pull of the river
Those who want no part in our future are venomous thieves
Seconds
Minutes
Hours are gone
Earth now forgotten
Until a memory is born.
