TICK TOCK
There are many lessons in life
that only time can teach you,
like how much you love someone.
It's nearly impossible to know that,
until you spend your days without them.
And then there are those lessons that you can learn
only through the beating of your heart,
and through feeling such strong emotions
that you can barely breathe.
Then finally,
the essence of time and
the power of your heart crossing paths,
and the only knowledge you're left with
is the realization that time is the one thing
that keeps you from letting go.
No, it's never the embracing, or the kisses.
Not the laughter or the tears, only TIME.
