We Never Capture “Now” – akiko
Upward you glide
Then fall again
Striving to rise
An endless refrain
The present always
Arrives a bit late
Moments we chase
Yet can’t quite seize
Slipping through our grasp
Like sand in an hourglass
Illusion of this world
We never capture “now”
Chase shadows of the past
Yet fleeting, they don’t last
Delusion of this world
We never capture “now”
Journey to a realm
Beyond time’s embrace
Beginnings meet ends
With a gentle grace
Slipping through our grasp
Like sand in an hourglass
Illusion of this world
We never capture “now”
Chase shadows of the past
Yet fleeting, they don’t last
Delusion of this world
We never capture “now”
