Time. Time is curious but yet furious.
Go back in time and you become a stranger,
Go forward in time and you become a danger.
But time is not something to play with,
And don’t think you can meddle with.
For if you do, it will be strange
For you to go back because everything will change.
But if you try to live the moment,
Surely you’ll conquer it.
