Time is a thief,
With all your belief,
It puts you in a place of grief.
Time can save you,
From your empty soul,
That’s being sucked out,
By your household ghoul.
Time is precious,
You only get so much,
Some, more than others.
Time is a thief,
As sleek as a fox,
As dark as night,
With no chance of seeing any daylight.
