The Power of Time

Can time gauge the depth of your relationship with another person?
Do you have an unexplained bonding with someone you just knew, as if you have known each other for the past decades?
Yet you cannot fathom the heart of the one whom has been sleeping next to you for as long as you can remember?

Can time heal the pain, bring the sun and dry the rain?
Is a hurt as intense as before?
Or has it faded with time?
Are you as bitter as you used to be?
Or have you forgiven and uncaged yourself?
Have you drawn a lesson from it and be better the next time?

Can time erase the memories?
Can you recollect what you did an hour ago or a week ago?
Yet do you find yourself reminiscing the beautiful moments you had shared with someone many years back?
Captured moments are always a part of us even though we may not remember?

Can time change a relationship of any kind?
The only constant in this world is changes?
Yet have you made the change better or worse?
How have you contributed to it - active or passive, a giver or a taker?
Have you wanted it bad enough to rough through it all and make it work out?

Can time change your choices?
What you wanted yesterday may not be what you want today or tomorrow?
What do you want at this point in time?
When was the last time you sit down and think about and for yourself?
Do you recall when was it that you realign your visions with your inner self?

Yet one thing is for sure
Time passed can never be recaptured
Moments lost can never be recreated
The experience of being fully alive is an experience itself
Ironical as it may sound, part of the enjoyment in life is the journey of struggles towards what you want
Experience life to the fullest today for tomorrow may not come
Carpe Diem...
