Analysis of Gone

Robert loughran 1962 (Ireland)



It always seem that time is lost ,that i could have better spent.
Money too, but at least i might earn a little more.
But time gives no backward glance ,no another time perhaps.
Just the unquestionable force, the no coming back. of the soft closing of a door.
