Time

give me time
i pray
time to learn
time to exist
give me time to work
my self into something usable
something  
desirable
but time is something i have not
and i must live
and let  
be
but let me be me
and fill myself  
with what i need
so that
time in her cruel ways
may not touch me
with her  
cold  
fingers
so that once  
i may feel a warmth
forgotten through time
 
time is as a moment lost
here
gone
we cannot grasp her wiles, her ways
just, try
and soon her voice youll hear
telling you to say
goodbye

(2007)
