We have time, by Octavian Paler

We have time for everything.
To sleep, to run here and there
To regret our mistakes and to be wrong again,
To judge others and excuse ourselves,
We have time to read and write,
To correct what we have written, and to regret what we have written,
We have time to make plans and not stick to them
We have time for illusions and then to go through their ashes later on,
We have time time for ambitions and diseases,
To blame destiny and details,
We have time to look at the clowds, the commercials or a simple accident,
We have time to dismiss our questions,
To postpone the answers,
We have time to break a dream and then reinvent it,
We have time to make friends, to loose them,
We have time for lessons which we then forget,
We have time to receive gifts that we don't understand.
We have time for everything.

There is no time for just a small amount of tenderness.
When we want that also, we die
