time
that’s all they say it takes
...to forget a love...to find the truth
...to lose yourselftime

how long does it take
...to just hold on
...to fight one last time
...to save yourselftime

when does it begin
...to heal
...to feel
...to redefine yourself

time
lost in the confusion inside
when will the answer be revealed
where did I go wrong
which second did I waste
that changed my life forever

time the choices are revealed
many paths to choose from
obstacles too large to fathom
grit your teeth and bear the load
make the leap of faith

time
.... that’s all they say it takes
