Chronophobia

Some think time will last forever
their connections in life, never to sever.
But you and I, we know better than that
and the Universe will choose to take us back

Why then, are we so hesitant to live
so very careful about how much we give
What are we afraid of, that hasn't already begun
is it prudent, to think we can run

I've seen life vanish in the blink of an eye
so it isn't hard for me to understand why
when something so meaningful shows its face
I let it take me to a higher place

Love is this thing, so abundant and free
but I hold on tight when it comes to me
For life can be gone, just as quick as it started
no more time to say 'I love you', to the dearly departed
