 </div><p></p>hours, like a racehorse, charge away<br>
the scorching sun is getting tired<br>
and for dusk, it makes way<br>
but I’m still here,<br>
like one who,to an unmade bed is wired,<br>
I’m still waiting, still wondering, still asking,<br>
“will time ever wait for me?
<p>I should snap out of this reverie<br>
I ought to stop fighting<br>
this urge that burns with rage<br>
to glance at the wall clock that ticks away</p>
<p>but never seems to grow weary<br>
But I’m still here,<br>
with a mind that could pass for blank<br>
but for the question<br>
that strikes like a rattler’s fang<br>
“why does time always have to go?”.</p>
<p>I am now convinced it is a spirit<br>
what glues my eyes<br>
to the screen of soulless images,<br>
and my ears to the voices,<br>
whose decibel, with the remote<br>
i can always limit,<br>
but I’ still here,<br>
without the slightest trace of self-will<br>
enchanted,no bewitched!<br>
by the box on the wooden shelf,<br>
but alas, I’m still left with a question,<br>
this question,<br>
“will I ever value my time?”</p>
