Fragments of Time

Shadows dance around the light

Echoes linger in the night

Moments fade like morning dew

Time slips by and so do you

In the mirror caught my glance

Lost in some forgotten trance

Memories they start to fray

Bits of yesterday decay

Fragments of time fall like rain

Pieces of joy mix with pain

Every second slips away

In the end

We can't delay

Stars align but never stay

Everything must fade to grey

Dreams are like a fleeting spark

Guiding us out of the dark

Letting go is never kind

Leaving all we've left behind

Grasping tight to what we've known

Even though we're moving on

Fragments of time fall like rain

Pieces of joy mix with pain

Every second slips away

In the end

We can't delay
