I'm Time.... Poem by Shaun Cronick

I can be the first.
I can be the last.
And the only.
I can never be enough.
I can be too much.
I can be on your side.
Or against you.
I can be at the beginning of a fairy tale.
Or many Bible's and prophecies end of.
I can't be smelt.
I can't be heard.
I can be felt of a sort.
I have hands.
And I can be on yours.
I can be a nick.
I can be a stitch.
I can be a point.
I can slip by.
And I can drift away.
I can go back.
And I can move forward.
I can be losing.
I can be gaining.
I can't wait for no-one or no man.
I can tell.
I can be telling.
I can be in.
I can be out.
I can be sad.
I can be happy.
I can be good.
I can be bad.
I can be historic.
I can be dark.
I can be enlightened.
I can be a.
I can be next.
I can be the.
I can be this.
And I can be that.
I can run out.
Or just in.
I can be enough.
Or not enough.
I can be patient.
I can be wonderful.
I can be miserable.
I can be enjoyable.
I can be rewarding.
I can pass so slowly.
And I can move very quickly.
I can really drag.
I can be lovely.
I can be fun.
I can kill you.
And I can heal.
I forever march on.
Eternally forwards.
I'm timeless.
I'm time...
