Forever In Your Heart

Time has a funny way,
of changing us,
rearranging us,

One moment,
you are on top
of the world,

the next,
you seem to have,
lost it all,

knowing now,
that what you
lost,

was actually,
what you had
always needed,

sometimes wisdom,
arrives too late,
or as long ,

as there is breath,
do we still have
a chance?

Is whats done,
is done? or
can we go back?

to before,
now with deeper,
feelings and understanding,

now with wisdom,
gained to bond closer,
is this a learning process?

must hurt always,
ariive at the moment,
of becomeing awakened?

Can we awake,
ahead of time,
before damage is
done?

growing pains,
hurt, stretching
our hearts,

all bent out of shape,
until it isn't a heart
anymore,

Just a piece of
splattered mass,
lyeing in a mess,

Waiting for someone,
to come and clean it
up.
