Analysis of A Look Upon Time
Today, lets take a look back at past,
That went away so soon, so fast,
Remember the ones we left apart,
Think how long is it going to last,
It doesn't how much your memory is clear,
Images from past would always have a blur,
Recalling the happy moments we feel joy,
While for all our mistakes we suffer,
What we are, is mirrored by what we call time,
Past being reflection of future at other side,
Present is the boundary, setting the destination,
For an observer, between past and future as horizon,
Past carries the weight of present self,
Future is wide open sky for us to fly away,
Not matter how many jumps we make,
In the present we would always wake,
Past is bound, with Order it holds its state,
For all decisions you took, choices you made,
Future is open, full of chaos, nothing is set,
No one knows, yet your acts decide what awaits.
