Nature of time
Tick Tock.
Time’s moving
You can’t change the past.
***
Tick Tock.
Time’s flowing
Just do what you must.
***
Tick Tock.
Move on!
You’ll just get more scars!
***
Tock Tick.
Reverse it?
Consequences there are,
***
Tock Tick.
Messed with time,
You forgot who you are-
***
doesn't matter.
Time moves on!
Your soul forlorn.
All trapped up.
In the past.
Tick Tock.
***

I love the "tock tick" before "don't mess with time" - really clever way to make us feel that jarring sensation and ram the message home 😁
Tick, tock, don't mess with time. Father time doesn't like it anymore than Mother nature. (Chiffon margarine commercial)
Love this . 💜
Love the repetition here -really creates a sense of urgency and the reversal works so well 🤍
