TIME'S TALE
The tale that only time can tell
Too many secrets locked within the lock's lost keys
The only keys that once opened your unfathomably beautiful mind
Only proved to be nothing but a trap
For how could I break the mind that was already made up
Time speaks the oldest language ever spoken yet we understand
Healing hearts with empty holes that cannot be filled with sand
But time hurts more than any pain ever does
And leaves us falling like sand in the hourglass
Or like bad eggs that will never hatch
Or rusty gears holding time within a watch
Time holds promises whether honoured or broken
Time holds words whether written or spoken
The hope in "We still have time"
The pain in "Once upon a time"
Time plays the sweetest symphonies
Time plays the solemn melodies
Maybe we were meant to part in pieces and not in peace
Maybe some day we'll look back and reminisce
And regret the wrongs that can not be undone
Or maybe realise we were meant to be Yin and Yang
Only time will tell
