Lost Time

My watch lost one hour last night. Today it's keeping accurate time, neither speeding ahead or dawdling. Perhaps the cold in the room seized it up and it stopped and then began again.

Isn't it that way with time? We sometimes wish we could expunge a particular period of time. Move the clock's hands beyond the hour and eradicate anything that took place in that timeframe.

It isn't as if we lose what happened, or words said disappear. No everything in that timeframe ceases to have a reality. Of course that's fantasy, but my watch losing one hour and then righting itself is real.

I'll have to check tomorrow morning and see if losing time is a nocturnal occurrence.
