How Time Flies. How Things Change.

I recognize the faces of old friends
And make the acquaintance of new
Hi. Hello. How are you?
Tries to bridge the time that flew
Away to who knows where
Where does time spent dissipate?
How quickly things change in passing
Forgotten, now gone, so too late
To redeem the time that’s past
And the moments that couldn’t last
Beyond childhoods and dreams
In a world that turns too fast
