Pushing yourself to the limits <br />With Head held high <br />Slogging to reach the arduous targets <br />Before life says goodbye. <br /> <br />You say, ‘I’m the master of me’ <br />And feel proud to think that you’re free <br />But we’re all the same, crawling through grime <br />Just another slave of time. <br /> <br />Watching the time piece, ever so often <br />Always in a hurry, small pleasures forgotten. <br />Work, Love, Friendship all done in haste, <br />Not a minute to spare, lest it should go waste. <br /> <br />Time is powerful it has us tamed <br />We’re puppets trying to excel in this game. <br />Timeless things remain, as we watch the colours fade <br />Lessons learnt and wisdom won in this trade. <br /> <br />Consumed by time, you struggle everyday <br />Times an issue, it’s too less we all complain <br />Attempts to stop it go in vain <br />If you don’t keep pace, you miss the train. <br /> <br />At the end of it we’re all the same <br />Born free and shackled we became <br />At our every step, jump or climb <br />We’re but mere slaves of time.<br /><br />.Pd. is here<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/slaves-of-time/
