"Passage of Time"

There is something about this passage of time.
It is unique to any other time that passes.
It is a hole into the very core of being
holding unknown events still,
even after they have taken [place
but, have not found us yet.
They come with perhaps a phone call
informing us about something that happened
to a friend or family member.
A surprise we could never imagine.
This time passes when you are
living as though things are as usual
and you discover that something has happened,
such as a plane crash.
You were happily waiting at the airport and suddenly
everything changes.
It can also be a happy event.
I don't know what to call it.
You are actually hap,py when it
has already occured you just don't know
it has occured.
What is this time? A mystery to me.
Everyone has had this time in their lives
and wondered how it could happen.
