Good Things Take Time Poem by Julie Smith

Good Things Take Time



Is this a beginning
Or just the beginning of an end like all the times before?
An ending before it began
Beginning to fade
Before we could make
The end stop taking this beginning away
I never knew when an illusion was real
Too many illusions that looked like a dream
They told me a future of uncertainty
The only real thing was watching these visions get me
Too many blue skies for a confused mind
Does love make you see or does it just make you blind?
Or does it depend on your own state of mind?
A lifespan of memories that never existed
An imagined life lived in polaroid pictures
Going in circles until our ways cross
Two lives forever waiting across
A distance of misconceptions
Good things take time and make no exceptions

julie, on your question, does love make you see or does it make you blind, i tend to think that love indeed makes us see, that it gives us clarity. and my experience is that developing trust definitely takes time, and trust is the main part of intimacy (of heart- not just of body) . ah, relationships! challenging and rewarding. glen
