Time

For more than weeks you're ignoring me
Believing it will change the way I see

Love might make time fly away
Time may kill this love anyway

Life doesn't even really care
Instantly cutting off your air

Nonetheless we would waste time
Blindly missing out on every sign

Another day passes standing where we stood
Afraid that nothing now can come to any good

Believe me any second one could die
Then it's too late and you ask yourself why

Was I too proud to just agree to giving in
Now you'll have to be living with this sin

So let nothing ever come in between
For the future is not to be forseen

One day tomorrow will never come
Waiting alone up there near the sun

Should have said what you wanted
Remaining a ghost and feeling haunted

Perception

This is a lovely piece, maybe not notice because you forgot to be angry which isn't a bad thing but it needed some grit in there to irritate the reader, look forward to tomorrow when your next piece will be, Yours Ian.T
