Time's sordid moments
takes it's toll,

adding a gravitational pull;

to a body
so weighed down,

his withered chin can touch the ground.

With pain so visible
on his face,

he lives without his wit and grace;

a life of selfishness
his major crime,

now sentenced to a duel with time;

and time's blatant
tenacity,

plus it's control over eternity;

reminds this man
how much it's cost,

for him to realize he's lost.

He wears
time's final wrath,

as he walks life's thorny path;

all alone
without a friend,

he walks the path to journey's end.
