Time dictates and I obey


Time dictates and I obey

What I am
I am not forever
But only for a moment
Till that too passes.

Want to remain a moment more
Lost in the maze of life
Or in the cocoon tight around me
But time pushes that moment away.

Time dictates and I obey
A babe today, an adult tomorrow
And the day after, I wilt away
Or fade like stars, in the light of day.

Live today,
For tomorrow may never be.
No more pleas to live longer
Time dictates and I obey.
