The Essence of Time



Tick tock tick tock
Time keeps ticking waiting for no one
Like a train on a schedule
Answerable to no one unapologetic for leaving without me

Tick tock tick tock
Makes me question
Keeps me on my toes
Not letting a single moment slip without being accountable

Tick tock tick tock
What have I achieved in the past minute
Even when nothings done, it counts
Never to be relived, never going down that road again

Tick tock tick tock
Scary thought, especially when priorities are undetermined
Tick tock tick tock
Wait, what just happened?

Ten years gone
Left daydreaming for too long
Over indulged in unrealities
Letting substance pass away

Ten years ahead
Ten years left to live
To regret or embrace
Choose to take charge

Make the difference
Use the time afforded me
Beat time at its tricks
Make the best of every minute

Tick tock tick tock
I have done it again
Every hit made a home run
What’s next on the list?

Achieving every dream
Conquering all life throws at me
Tick tock tick tock
Guess what?
I caught the train this time.

Just penned down some thoughts to encourage myself and everyone who reads this that no matter how fast life goes by, the mistakes made, even battles won, there’s always time ahead to change the story when hope seems lost, press on when you feel discouraged, and be inspired from what is left behind; even more, by what’s ahead. When the time comes to run, run like hell, if you have to slow down wait and build patience but in the heat of all never forget what’s most important:





Life. Purpose. Passion. Hope. Love. Inspiration. People. God





P.S: always remember the essence of time is to inspire hope.

Be Inspired...


Have you ever felt like writing not knowing what to say?
Having a yearning a desire burning so deep
Yet not knowing what it is
Ever been so afraid to start cause failures right there in your face
Every tried to stand and words keep breaking you every time
Believe me, that, seems to be my life now 
Sometimes I wish life were easier
A scripted play with actors
Lines, scenes and a happy ending
But really how intriguing will that be?

In the face of adversity
When words and actions seem stale
Broken and meaningless
Through heartbreak and
Streams of tears be inspired

Be inspired to break the status quo
Take the first step in faith and let the other foot follow
Fight to see through the fog
And walk till you feel you can fly
Be inspired
Be inspired when the world is cold
Be inspired when you feel numb
Be inspired in times when there’s no hope
Be inspired it’s all you need to fight this fight

Be inspired by the tears you cry
Be inspired by the wounds that would heal
Be inspired when all seems faint 
Cos in the end thats all you need to make that change.

AGE.SPACE.TIME



Welcome to the age of possibilities they say
A time with no limits but the ability to transcend
Transcend what you may ask? Beats me, same question everyone asks
Yet no one is brave enough to face their fears or brace them
Time slips away—so fast one life to live but how?
Take charge; understand the transcendental things
The good—the world of forms as Socrates puts it
Live life to the fullest but what happens to moderation?
The element that lends us a hand in living a life that could compare to perfection.
~
Age, a number the determinant of how much we know,
How much we’ve overcome
Age the measure of success, failure, hope and what to look forward to
Age the determinant of what lies ahead.
~
Space the platform to let the dreams and hopes that linger in our minds actualize
Space wonder what mine contains
What I’ve been able to induce and deduce
What I’ve chosen to keep defining me
~

Age, Time, Space
Three elements that I cant seem to grasp but has to rule me, my life, my destiny... conspicuous yet deceptive...
