I don't know if I'm battling against time
But something strange is happening to me
It's a feeling that I've felt before
I believe I'm becoming the man I used to be
I guess I'm more impatient than I thought
Because I just can't get to use to being alone
I feel like I'm losing my poise
And the love that I had is gone
My love for Love is slipping away
Tell me, what should I do to make it stay?
My mind is telling me to go
But the core of my heart is saying, "No"
"Keep trying and you'll find your queen"
I reply, "I've tried and I've tried
But cold & lonely nights
Keep pounding on my pride"
My heart is becoming empty
But it's fighting every day of the week
My mind wanders off into the past
On the cold person I used to be
The more I think about it, I realize
When I was a player I received all the love a girl had inside
But since I've changed, & learned to love
Not one girl has stood by my side
Maybe it wasn't meant for me to love
Maybe Love wasn't meant to love me
It's true, miracles do happen
But in this case, it wasn't meant to be
Whatever I've done to Cupid
It's something he constantly thinks of
Because he has wounded my heart with his arrow
But not an arrow of Love
I'm going to seal this poem with a kiss
But the end is far from being near
Because time heals all wounds
And time will tell me where I go from here
Tha Prodigal One...
