Slave of time


I've lost my long battle with time .....
every 'unbeaten' emotion has been subdued

and almost every 'brave' thought tamed
in my insane pursuit to stay prime.

It was my folly to challenge
the one who is hard to fixate
and even harder to locate
I should have guessed sooner
defeat was written in my fate.

For long I kept chasing it
but it constantly raced ahead
what time made me realise was
either I walk with it or just be led
but never should I dare to
either overtake or dash ahead!!
