Just a Little Time

Only minutes pass me by...
And with every second that ticks
I can feel regret start to prick
My eyes water
My feet falter

Casting my sight anywhere but me.
I have no dignity.

Only a handful of seconds have passed me
But it seems that the world has stopped
Turn around
And look back
There stands Regret.

They look and talk like me
Even have the walk
I feel myself drowning
They fill my shoes without thought.

There are no second chances
Only the fact that Life can't dance
In tune with fate
All 'cause Death has a date.

Only seconds have passed
My feelings are gone
And all I've got is a gapping hole where a heart should be.
Please forgive me
My rash words don't mean a thing
I never meant to be so brash
If I had a heart maybe it would beat
Or would it thrash?

Oh Regret and Misery
You always accompany me
Life can't dance
And I am late to meet with Death.
