By Nikiesha Richards

She was sitting there in the terminal writing a note

As she was everything but patient waiting for the boat

“Imagine I could’ve been in my bed catching up on some sleep”

Adding that her time is a lot of things but it’s not cheap

The young man next to her asked why was she complaining

Being so annoying and distracting what benefits are you gaining

The boat will be here, it’s just running late

So stop complaining because you have no other choice but to wait

She then asked why I should wait would it have waited for me

They heard that I was coming, then left when it’s me they did not see

She looked at her watch and said it’s now eight o’clock

That’s way past late it’s past seven and it’s not even at the dock

Time is not something sitting in the palm of your hands

And that’s what a lot of people don’t seem to understand

Time is something just like how it’s given it’s taken

And if you think you have a lot of it you are sadly mistaken

How much time stands between life and death

Just a second that stands between your last breath

Time is like a child that should be treated with care

Because by the time you open your eyes it’s no longer there
