Pondering Of A Poet

Lost Time

When once upon a time, keeps running through your mind.
longing to go back in time.

Find that happiness that you thought had been tucked away.

But those memories, oh how they stay.

Longing to say everything you never got a chance to speak.

But your find your courage is weak.

Afraid you wont like what they have to say.

The memories seem to flood in more each day.

You find you wish you never pushed them away.

Now all you want to say is, please stay.

All those thoughts that make you break into a smile.

It's been a long while since it all felt real.

Now all you can do is wait.

Hoping fate will step in and play a role.

The once upon a time, that plays on repeat in my mind.

A time when everything was real but I wasn't ready to seal a deal with my heart.

Always running.

Always looking for a new start.

But I didnt realize I left my heart with you.

You had it tightly tucked away.

So I'm just waiting for you to say you can have mine too.

Whisper freely I'm giving it to you.

The day when once upon a time, wont just be a memory in my cluttered mind.
