Time is measured by minutes, hours and days. The sun comes up and it goes down. We go to bed; we rise. There is a routine.

It doesn't work for me.

Discord

This chord called time
Starts me off, thinking
Traps my sad thoughts
And leaves me blinking

And yet three notes
In any which scale
First, third and fifth
Make musical ale 

It soothes my brow
Dispels my despair
Recharges love
And recreates care

Will I forgive?
Forget what went wrong?
Find harmony
And sing you my song?

All that I know
Is the breath I take
Keeping strict time  
To melt my heartache
