“Does it matter?” I asked.

“Not till you told me it’s urgent.”

In your sense of urgency,

 I felt an urge to chase me

Till the boundaries blurred;

And compelled I felt to meet

My recluse-Self as she sought

In imperative an answer

To comprehend “it’s urgent”

My Self exclaimed,

“Time does matter!”
