Wasting

You always waste time,
But what you can't see is this:
Time is wasting you.

Save

Help may come someday
When you least expect, or want;
But it will save you.

Three

One will tell the tale,
Another will blur its lines;
A third sets it straight.

Hundred

You've tried a hundred times, I know,
But don't give up what you've begun;
It may be that what you seek will succeed
In try number a hundred and one.

Work

Never simply wait;
When the time comes, it will too;
For now, you must work.

Hope?

Hope will strip you of worry,
It will give your heart a spark;
It can take away your fears:
But it needs credibility to work.

The Person I Was

If the person that I
once was
Met the person I
am
now
I am sure the two would
argue up
a storm
Or stare at each other with
a
scowl.

If the person I
once knew
Met the person he
is
today
They would laugh and get along
just
fine
And watch as I
wasted
away.

If he met the person you
will love,
That person you
love
now,
He'd feel unworthy of a girl
like
you
And that awe would elicit
a
wow.
