Time Never Stops

The days are now short
and the sun sets before I wake
the clock turns faster
and before I know it
I am another year older

Ten Eleven Twelve Thirteen
Here I am
I feel grown up
But every night I sleep
with the same stuffed bear

And days are getting longer
so I feel the blushing light on me
for longer than I can handle
and I have nothing to do
except wait till the days are short again.
