Array ( [sid] => 123820 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Time Will Tell [time] => 2006-07-28 23:54:49 [hometext] => I just wrote this poem tonite about a very very hard time in my life. This poem has been waiting 10 months to burst out of me and be heard and read. Enjoy!!! [bodytext] => Time Will Tell

Long days and longer nights, harder in the dark than it is in the light

Tired of the hurt, exhausted with pain /Always the one who takes all the blame

I didnt do this, or I should have said that/ I should have spoken my mind, gone up to bat

I wanted to, I tried/ To tell the truth, and stop the lies

The words stuck in my throat, would not break free / So it all stayed inside, this terrible agony

Eating away at who I was/ Making it hard for me to trust

Who to believe and what to do/ They hated each other and neither knew

That by fighting and hating, they were ripping me apart/ Torn in two directions and not knowing where to start

I wish they would have seen/ Exactly what their war was doing to me

They hated each other and neither could understand/ how I could love them both, as lovers and friends

Torn between past and present/ It had the power to kill me and I nearly let it

I always thought, if I could get them to see... how great they both were, that's all they'd need/ But neither could believe cause what they saw was me

I was the prize and niether would let go/ Desperate times call for desperate measures, and they both sunk low

Taking jabs and pulling tricks/ bad talking each other and laying bricks

Putting up a wall too high for me to climb/ And as I fell, I thought I would die

I lost them both, and myself too/ Trying to please everyone, but now I didnt know who

Who was this girl, that I'd become/ Stopped saying what she felt, who wasnt anyone

I loved them both, but didnt take the time/ To find out the reason, to figure out the rhyme

Instead of taking a step back/ I tried to move forward and got off my track

Had my heart handed to me, not knowing what it was/ Cause what I had given came back in pieces, it was mush

I took it in my hands, and layed it down/ I thought for awhile, in my tears, I would drown

I struggled to my feet, and nearly collapsed/ I was proud of myself cause little time lapsed

I made a decision, to find myself again/ before I tried to be with another man

And things are getting better and I am working hard/ To get back to being me, and holding up my gaurd

And now I know that when I am ready/ My soulmate will come, our love steady

And, until that time/ Im gonna be happy with my life being mine.

Time Will Tell

Long days and longer nights, harder in the dark than it is in the light

Tired of the hurt, exhausted with pain /Always the one who takes all the blame
