Time

She is strict, she is punctual, she is disciplined and diligent. She teases, she taunts, she warns and she haunts.
At times she comes to me gracefully, tempting me when I am in high spirits and runs away quickly without me realizing it. How I wish she stayed for some more time and let me enjoy the moment but she is the master and I have to abide by her rules. I wonder and propagate what a lucky person I am to have her in this beautiful form. She arouses envy in others, when I am happy with her. She laughs and regales me however it seems for a very short span.  I am so lost in the euphoria that I realize late of that she is gone too soon.

There are also those times when she stays with me , when I am in a foul mood. Anger or frustration or irritation or depression. She never leaves me alone. But she doesn't bother to invite me to involve with her as she moves along. In such states, I sit and mourn and she plays in front of my eyes running along as she wishes. She stares at my inertia with cold eyes mocking me, blatantly stating that she wouldn't budge so soon. If only she ran along unnoticed, I think I would have some relief.
