Past, Present, and Future

Past, Present, Future

Elegy
The timeline is a thing we use to keep track
 but not of the past and future that we have kept
 for last we have gone throw trechorous rivers
 to find where we can be free
 but nowhere on this timeline there is not time for me
 and time for you is time to be free
 so i will try my best to set an example
 for the future and it's past that's out there waiting for me.
