The sun dies <br />The star cries <br />The moon waxes and wanes <br /> <br />And the years go by <br /> <br />The sand slips <br />And the bell chimes <br />Forever and never, you and I <br />We scream at nothing <br />At something <br />And watch the time tick by <br />Now is a memory <br />Tomorrow is a mystery <br />And all things are history <br />Omnipotent, it hold us here <br />Contingent upon stronger forces <br />Shaping and bending at will <br /> <br />And the years go by <br /> <br />Her hair grows longer <br />He gets taller <br />Forever and never, you and I <br />Even as the skin will crumple <br />Eyes remain open and wide <br />And still we yell at nothing <br />At something <br />The quickest moments <br />Are the ones we miss most <br />Missing the chances we didn't take <br />Never regreting the decisions we did make <br />The hours waste away <br /> <br />And the years go by <br /> <br />Filled with hugs and kisses <br />And everyone we will miss <br />Forever and never, you and I <br />Treasured moments tucked away <br />Moments spent in arms <br />Kept within an aging vault <br />Will we always yell at nothing? <br />At something? <br />We will know eventually <br /> <br />The sun dies <br />And star cries <br />And moon waxes and wanes <br /> <br />And the years go by<br /><br />Autumn Winds<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/years-go-by-2/
