***
Trees are growing fast;
Children are growing up;
Parents are growing old;
Friends, who once were lovers, are growing further apart.
Lovers, who once were friends, are growing out of their relationship.

We live in a world of constant Change; and Time has always been two steps ahead of us. Time, like a scheming thief, takes away our beauty and memories. Change catches up and destroys every sense of familiarity, leaving us powerless and delusional.

Together they run faster and farther, laughing as they stare back at us with amusement. "Look at the people; look at the world. Look how they have grown out of control."

Here I am - growing sick and tired.

Too late.
Too late.
I didn't see Them coming.
