Love and Time







He feels the decadence

of the day

knows that what’s inside him

hidden will always stay

what’s done is done

no future is left in the past

battle over, no one has won

thoughts are slow to fade away

forgiveness become words.... lips will never say



Ambivalence of early morning sunshine

gives way to the afternoon rain

no matter how much things change in his mind

seems the heart forlorn always stays just the same



Nights quiet will scream to him inside

in dreams memories will reside

for he is haunted

and taunted

in the night

only to himself

will he in morning light confide



For love and time

go hand in hand

they dance without care

to romance they sing along

and never a day

will get in their way

until one day...they’re gone
