Time's scars

What was the start of all this?
When did the cogs of fate begin to turn?
Perhaps it is impossible to grasp the answer now,
from deep within the flow of time...

But for a certainty, back then,
we loved so many, yet hated so much,
we hurt others and were hurt ourselves
yet even then, we ran like the wind
whilst our laughter echoed under the cerulean skies...
