In Time
© Duddi Mai 2006
I heard about some ones death
Feel terrible for their family
I see them crying covering their head
But in time, they will move on…
I saw her crash into another car
The car’s on fire and she’s screaming
Frozen with terror, unable to save her
But in time, she will pass on…
Hearing a child crying
Can’t get his way
But he’s just spoiled not dying
And in time, he will move on…
Listen to the silence
Listen to the rain
Listen to the birds…
They stopped singing
Darkness falls over life
The day began, and ended
Some of us survived
But in time, it too shall pass
