Loss Of Time

by Emily Strickland   Jun 21, 2005


What is this thats going on,
I seem to have lost track of time.
everything is rushing so fast,
I find that I'm falling behind.
What has happen to yesterday,
and all the years gone by.
I cant help but think to myself,
man the time sure does fly.
look at how we've changed,
how different we've become.
all the things that have come between,
to undo all that we've done.
the things that we built up,
have all come crashing down.
feelings have disappeared,
I can sense it all around.
I sit and wonder to myself,
where did we go wrong?
how did we just fall apart?
when we used to be so strong.
what happened to the time?
all the promises we made.
what's happened to our memories?
I can feel them start to fade.
I wonder who's to blame,
was the fault only mine?
there are just too many questions,
with answers hard to find.
Into this small little puddle,
goes another one of my tears.
reflecting back on what was real,
retracing the steps through all the years.
everything happens for a reason,
and maybe in time this will pass.
you cant hold onto something,
when there’s no hope it will last.
someday I know we’ll forgive,
and hopefully soon forget.
so we can turn away this burden,
and let go of the regret.
