Time Is Mine

Time Is Mine I watch the clock as the seconds tick Each minute moves so slow I don’t know why you are not here I can feel the loneliness grow You promised you would not be late That promise is now completely broken How many times does it take to know? There is no truth to the words you’ve spoken I always believe the words you speak More times than not my dear The words you speak are just not true And it has caused me many a tear You think because I am lonely I should be grateful for your time That used to be the case my dear I waited with time that was mine I shall not wait for you again And I will not waste any more time Your time with me is done My time is precious and it is mine I will more wisely use my time I am not too sure what I will do There are many ways spend it But it won’t be waiting for you Connie Moore 1/25/14
