Excerpt:

Time Comes Around

I went to see her

After years of being away

She sat old and frail

But still with much to say

 

Condemnation and pain-

Off her tongue

Came the blame

And with all her ability

She took no responsibility

For the damage

That she’d once produced

 

And with casual simplicity

And cold, raw audacity

The past

She quickly reduced-

 

To moments of time

The blame to be mine

 

The once child

So quiet and shy

 

Words thrown out to shame

Continued to blame

The now woman

Wanting to fly-

To a land far away

A new world

I have made

Surrounded by sunshine and grace

 

I give my forgiveness

With God as my witness

I turn and walk away

From this place

 

The old pain and grief

I leave at this door

Knowing full well

I belong here no more

 

Time comes around

For the many

And the few

 

To show new horizons

To show life anew
