Analysis of The Time
I am the time
I don't wait
For no anyone
For no anything
Never back again
It is my nature
The wise people
Use and avail me
For their happy life
For their purposes
For their goals
But the simpleton
They wait for me
And live in the dreams
They waste me
If they awake
They feel sorry
I am not there
Anymore
I am the Time
I don't wait
Never back again
