Whispers of the Clock

The river moves without a sound Its glassy surface knows no bound A thousand suns have kissed its face Yet none can halt its fleeting pace Time slips away like sand through my hands But your laugh still echoes where the meadow stands A shadow of warmth in the cool of the gray You’re the memory that time can’t take away The stars above They change their glow The winds forget the paths they know But in my chest A lantern’s light It burns for you through endless night Fingers fade They cannot hold But hearts remember what they’re told Time slips away like sand through my hands But your laugh still echoes where the meadow stands A shadow of warmth in the cool of the gray You’re the memory that time can’t take away The clock can tick The years may call But moments like yours outlive them all A fleeting touch A golden hue Forever etched It feels so true Time slips away like sand through my hands But your laugh still echoes where the meadow stands A shadow of warmth in the cool of the gray You’re the memory that time can’t take away
