Time passes, sometimes so very fast

you begin to wonder where the time went,

and how long this period will last?

One minute you are a child of only five years.

Before you know it you have lost twenty plus years.

Where has the time gone and how can it be

that we are several years into a new century?

Twenty years ago we never thought

that we would see a new century or all that it has brought.

The pain, the agony, the tragedy and dispair.

What has happened to the world, why is everything no longer fair?

We ask ourselves this question, this very one:

Can anyone tell me, where has the time gone?
