Time Is Black

From a distance, the truth is so obvious,

Answers are all so clear.

Logic stays at arm's length

When engulfed in the present, here.

Desperation draws near...

If I could pull the fabric of time

And bring the future near,

The answers wouldn't be so far

The truth would be so clear.

Time is black

And nothing will escape.

Nothing will remain.

Nothing.

From a distance time is black,

Tangible and dense.

With each rotation a new day passed

And past, at last, makes sense.

There where past obstacles seem

Just pebbles on your path

Always just a step ahead

The peace I hope to catch...
