Analysis of Time



Time heals all things they say
So why does time take so long?
To heal the wounds that you can't see
Why do they fester and fill with infection?
Why do they look red and angry?
Because healing is not about time
It's about perspective of the pain
The pain received
The pain given
One must look in ward
To really see all
Feel all
And deal with all
Time is your companion
Not your worst enemy
