it is time that i have
    but not really
elusive –
it’s within my grasp
    but it slips away

the delay brings promise
and promise builds
    emotions, bursting
    with fear as its shadows

    looming from behind
larger than its source
with failed hopes
    and still dreams

it is time that i have
    but not really
and like everything
i am but finite
    until i waste away.
