Omnipotent time

Time makes some of us sentimental,
Time makes some of us stone-hearted,
Perhaps, in the end, it is because of time that we shall suffer.

Blessed are those who never lived to see their fortunes taken away,
Blessed are those who never lived to see their loved ones hate them,
Blessed are those who never lived to see their tomorrows,
Blessed are those who never witnessed the fury of time.
