I long for time with you,
time just to be ourselves,
time get to know each other again.
Where different people now.
No longer young but not truly old.

When we were young life so was full of promise,
It held so many possibilities.
It was all,
Do I go left or right North or south?
Or…. should I just stand still and love where I am.

Now
Life goes by at warp speed.
Hours seem like minuets, minuets like seconds,
Weeks like days, months like weeks,
In the shake of my head a year has gone by.
Life is reminding me that time waits for no one.

I’m so done with mediocre.
So, I’m about to get selfish.
I’m going to spring for the good chocolate.
I’m drinking top shelf,
I’ll dance when the music moves me.
I’ll set by the river in the sunshine.
And,
I’ll find my passion.
