there was a time

because time passes see that it has already passed away and doesn't it take everything else with it? i love the fact that you are sad for it it means you understand its value without knowing why you know it isn't for persistence it's for the way it tastes and smells no-one will ever be able to tell if it really was here after all but you come of age and fortunately you know somethings you are in a position to be able to tell so i want you to go ahead and tell tell me of a time of stars and rain tell me about putting a sea shell close to your ear to hear the ocean how it betrays the real thing the feeling of the wind on your face what the salt in the air tastes like then when you stand upon those majestic cliffs looking out to the far horizon watching the rising sun to be in your right mind for only one moment in your life defeating the fickle nature of the stage to remember a forest and a house the animals and the people and to say yes long ago but then again forever as well that there were mountains and that there was a time to tell
