Lost Time


It started with a “Yes”

All you need is a “Yes”

Best three letters, Y-E-S

 

We talked for an Hour

All you need is an Hour

Just the two of us, for an Hour

 

Homecoming to Dance

All you need is a Dance

A carefree, Dance

 

Every bit of Time

All you need is Time

Thinking of her, in Time

 

Floating up is a Chance

All you need is a Chance

A missed, Chance

 

Round two for Hope

All you need is Hope

A smidgen, of Hope

 

Onto a car Ride

All you need is a Ride

Emotions are along, for the Ride

 

The weight of Denial

All you need is Denial

Determination comes from, Denial

 

In comes an Apology

All you need is an Apology

New beginnings are in, an Apology

 

The burden of a Confession

All you need is a Confession

A release from pain, a Confession

 

A deep cutting Truth

All you need is the Truth

NO LOVE, is the Truth

 

One fat Lie

All you need is a Lie

All that came before but the truth, is a Lie

 

From the lips came a Silence

All you need is Silence

A heart piercing, Silence

 

Still a foolish Love

All you need is Love

An everlasting, Love.
