Lost in Eternity

I own the night–part of the day;

after the moon has flown away.

But, can anyone own the time

it takes to make a rhyme?

Time is always too slippery

for the poet in time with me.

I may have just a little knack;

slippery time is what i lack.

There must be some physical things

Time is a part of happenings.

Therefore it is always in flight,

slipping away every night.

Come back time and remember me.

I got lost in epiphany.
