A Perfect Fit


childhood has a past comfort
there was a time someone
carefully wrapped you up tight
pulling in all the rough edges
and tucked it all in
maybe once again you
have found another someone
(tonight) let me be the one
to cover you completely
fold all these places where
space has held the cold
was I born too late
sewn together in pieces
and I could have missed you
but look where I am now
for time can find you
the perfect quilt

Yes, once there was such a time...such a person.

Time happens in pieces....and some do get sewn together in ways that no one would believe but the person who owns that particular kaleid of it.....

And you are right, there are times (such an odd way to say it) when time doesn't matter at all....as you already knew, of course.
