A lapse in time A moment in which I've lost my focus A lapse in thought A valuable token The most thoughtful thinking is done without speaking And taught without seeking In a room with a clock So that there's never a moment in time you can't take back because Time heals all wounds so that you can walk And fools talk So don't open your mouth for foolish critiquing The art of being thoughtful is that no one knows what your thinking Because your thinking too deeply And if you can instigate a moment in time Through the power of your mind without blinking Then you have the power to concieve a new state of believing Believing the ability to see beyond the realm people are ordinarily seeing. This level of achievement is unbeknownst to my fragile concepts I've realized the pattern, but have yet to pick up the steps And I miss being the surefooted label Because I was less likely to slip on the time tables And maybe one day I'll be able to think in time and master by mind So that i wont MIS step for fear of being mistaken But rather use my mind To place my hand in time And twist my fate to that of my own making.
