Time

Time is a river that forgets my name
the closer it gets to the ocean

Time sped as I tread in the ocean
waiting to be rescued

Boats float by as I am left uncertain,
soaked in the bellow of time

No boat turns around, no signal is sent,
I swim for an island on borrowed intent

Sands tug my feet as I’m unable to retreat,
time is all around, and I’m left profound
