Time



Equality its quality
Time gives us sanity
Straddling as friend and enemy
Brings in its duality

Real or a concept
Know or transcend
Philosophers have the answer
Only it seems to matter

Fills many life's
Empties the rest
Static for some
Memories for most

Sets standards
Punchality its first
Defines humans
Communicates to Animals

Timely describes right
Untimely the wrong
Timing explores both
Time simply the watch

Good and Bad time
Essence of life
Time up
Essence of its end

Time doesnt end
It stops its  existence
Only With reference
Plays its role to perfection

Time used as a balm
Non believer in God
Atheists and Rationalists
Non believer in time
Not existant  as its backed by science

Hope and faith
Subdidaries of time
Signifying a change
Not specifying a frame

Time unable to replace
Time replaces time
Existing in every tick
Seconds needle brings with it

Is it good or bad
Brings in routine
Free or busy
Time the answer
Delivers correctly

Time up
End time
Time not ending
End of the line

Timeless in time
Immortality signified
Very few managed
To live after time

Greatest quality
Medicinal beauty
Heals the heart
Thank you to the Clock
