Time    


Sometimes time stops       for just a moment
and then the moment is gone.
We continue dreaming about tomorrow
and the coming of the  dawn.
Sometimes time             is but a memory
that comes knocking at your door;
it slips into the realms of yesterday
because time holds so much more.

Time can be our worst enemy
or it can often be our best friend
softening the blows of life
and giving a heart        the gift of mend.

Is time considered eternity,
and if so, how long will it last?
Is time a measure of tomorrow
holding truths    born of the  past?

I believe time can be a mystery
an adventure of life to play
time can be so many things
but sometimes time begins......today.....

I love you
With a thousand hearts."

sometimes.... much dear

have missed you too

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone though you're still with me
I've been alone all along..Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
