Duration

It's been long,
very long indeed.
What seems to have been a minute or so
became a day or so.

It's been short,
a short break of being indulged.
What seems to have taken a month or so
turned into a hour or so.

It goes long
then comes back short.
Furthers the distance
then decreases the speed.

Its only rule,
is to rule oneself
with a complete basics
of time and day.

And,
its only elimination
is the one who has the complete basics
of day and time.
