Time

Time is like a flame
That burns the candle of life
Melting fast away with pride
Seconds tick, tick, tick and pass
The sun rises and sets
Time at its best

The candle of life becomes shorter
I believe it burns time out
No more extra time
What should I do
Can I stop it ?

If I can't stop my candle
From melting and watering away
I must then face the reality
My candle is precious
Let me make use of it effectively
Before it burns away
I know it is irreversible .
