The Winds of Time

The Winds of time
Blow across the years
And everything does change.
The times go by,
Too swiftly now
The years do fly,
And everyone grows too fast.
For yesterday, it seems,
That I was but a child
With no responsibility
And little to worry me.
While today an older version
Of that child lives,
Lives and worries every day
About everything around.
Slow down, ob years,
Blow not so hard, oh winds.
For I need time
To catch my breath
And to look down
The corridor of time
To try to see what the future brings.
