Promise of Time/ Time KilledA Poem by ConstanceHe slips further into my mind and soul Effortlessly, smoothly, without force And I accept though with resignations Letting friendship take its course Hoping time won't take a heavy toll Splitting the paths of our destinations
Conversation,too easy, distance, not such Yet the trust and the connection build And the resignations become stale, dry Proving I am not so wary as to have killed The quest for that which I want too much Egged on by forces unseen, again I try
I've tried so many times, always did fail Otherwise, I suppose I'd have no reason To continue the search for what is right Changing men like the change of the season Eagerly I reach a shore, to reluctantly set sail Though no longer after a single lusty night
I always promise myself, this time will last It will be different, more promising, fullfill My every need and longing, and I will be Everything he's ever needed and he will Make me forget all lovers from the past And all my dreams will rest in us and we
Ahh... but this time I'm not moving so fast He slips into my mind and soul but I wait To let him slip so far in that I can't remove At a moments notice, if this is not fate For something in me says he could be last... The end of the journey, promise's proof
Even if you see the draft image in your mind At the break of day, all in one vision of hope Every architect knows... things take time to build And in the interim you can sit around and mope Or you can do your best to truly seek and find A reason for every promise, and each hour killed
