This is my response to my own challenge :)


Reflections

I look back on the days when life was few
Problems were little and time was new
The weeks went by with speed and I knew
Life was forever and reality was true
Somehow time was unstable and left me alone
Lost in illusions and location unknown
I sought a place where I had control
All the time I wanted and a song in my soul
The past held the key to all of my dreams
Could I unlock it, at first it seemed
Then it hit me, time lost was destroyed
Gone forever in a faceless void
Today was my mirror and all I could see
Was that of the past, here to remind me
That the present was better, I had the control
I sought from the past, I had reached my goal
Life was good and now I could see
That today was mine and the future was guaranteed

Well you certainly rose to your own challenge, great poem especially liked these lines:

"Then it hit me, time lost was destroyed
Gone forever in a faceless void"

Our fight to retrieve something that belongs to only time and God and the devil's records. Good Job on this one.
