Time Poem by Tracey TEE

Time

Rating: 5.0


That's all it took was a little time
Yet it seemed eternal pain

Now when I greet the morning
I no longer speak your name.

Your cruel ploy to break my heart
through no fault of your own

is nothing but a memory
of the worst pain that I've known.

Self respect is mine again
no more the fool am I

no longer do I crave you
no longer do I cry,

I now tread very carefully
and protect my inner soul

you hold the very piece
of me that no one else will know.

Great one Tracey. Self respect is so important and to hold your head high is the best way to be. Time heals as you are finding. I enjoyed or rhythm and rhyme too. 10 Karin Anderson
