Time's Running.

We take each step 5 steps at a time.
Time's running,
We're running.
Did you ever think,
S l o w d o w n .
No,
Instead,
We take each step 10 steps at a time.
Time's running,
Life's running.
It seems like 5 seconds ago we were crying,
Because the blood started pumping in our hearts,
We were born.
It seems like 5 minutes ago we were thinking,
Dinosaurs are scary,
Humans are scary.
Time's running.
Air's running.
It seems like 5 hours ago we were breathing,
Our life is living,
Our love is loving.
Time's running,
Wind's running.
It seems like 5 years ago we were pure,
We were tiny.
Now we're tinier.
Because time's running.

5 centuries ago we weren't here.
Where were we?

And we be coming from the mountains.

This poem reminds me of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I read the comic of it and in the end, he just disappeared; just like that.

We came from the mountains?
I thought we came from monkeys?(:
