The Hands of Time

Wish

By

Jessica Singleton 

 You walk a straight 
and 
shallow path
That no sees . 
you are too busy trying
 to keep behind the 
shadows and glare of the evening news.
I am sure you will wish this away too. 

Truth echoes and lies fade away like  dandelions in a breeze.
Every secret kept 
Every wish reflected 
Through a death watch  projector. 

I'm sorry I showed up late.
I was not awake 
I'm awake now 
I have decided to decline 
From this masquerade time capsule. 
I wish you well 
I really do 
I hope you find 
Your way back 
From 
Whatever path lead me to you. 
I'm sorry I wasted your time.
