In Time

by Joe Cramer

Time is not my own,
I am left all alone
as it should be,
while it could be
something more for me.
There is nothing left to see.

Nice...short and sweet....to the point.

...and the point, timeless, ageless, magnificent and terror-ific all at once. The sense that because one feels there is nothing left to see, one is just ripe for beginning to see everything. I share the melancholy in these lines, brother!

This describes that feeling very well and leaves me feeling the bleak of it. Well done.

As usual; you say a lot in an economy of words. Good read.
