A Challenge To Be Free Is a Question of Time

A Challenge To Be Free Is A Question Of Time Through the pouring rain we must explain Brocken glass on the pavement floor Lest I implore a day before The twilight sun has tainted my inner vision I'm just one man set out on a mission How you fought so very hard & fierce My one truest love is now gone from here A challenge to be free is a question of time My one solution is to be wise & use my mind Living on the edge and it's going to my head Sitting up at night all alone in bed We are all given one chance to take part in the dance Shelter lies dormant amidst it's beckoning plough A lone blade of grass out there stirring in the wind Lines are being formed in the sand to what were sitting in As a caged mouse is stuck in it's crazy little maze You wake up late in some purple haze A heart is an opened book for one to read it The love that beckons it's grasp in which to receive it Shake dreams from your hair my pretty child choose the day A solemn time well spent in which to bow the knee to pray A challenge to be free is a question of time That's it for my pen & so is this rhyme.
