years of tears
moments of resentment
cannot invade a space
long disregarded by time…
not when you have moved on
years of fear
moments of despair
space within
breaks the rhythm
but the time flows
and it flows to another victim
who is ignorant of time’s laws
precise though subtle
conqueress of memories
womb of hope

This post is the result of a fine interaction on Twitter between myself and Ahmad Javed.
I thank him for this wonderful inspiration
“breaks the rhythm but the time flows” – loved how beautifully you penned the magic and control time has on our lives. Though-provoking and wonderful !
