Maybe I've Succumbed

What is it that always deals me the past?
I look back, thinking it’s a choice I make.
And yet in moments like these, aghast, 
I feel the choice is a trap, a snake.

Light comes, though is perpetually late
in telling me the truth that I have sought.
What all it brings me in a laden plate 
is the mirth of Time, a murky plot.

What use is knowing what’s forever lost!
The night sky - a story, a lie, the past.
I look; am I merely not the frost
that settles for an ever - melting part?

The leash of time has had me but numbed -
maybe my death is past, maybe I’ve succumbed.
