A Time For Us
Time goes by like clouds in the wind.
When young, I did not notice their haste
But as I grew older and wiser,
I found each day too precious to waste.
As I look back upon my life,
A young man comes to mind.
I often wonder if he was 'the one':
A once in a lifetime find.
How to know true love's embrace?
With youthful games, the signs erase.
Missed signals fly all over the place.
Yet, to this day, I see his face.
Fate made the introductions
But I'll never know just why.
He was everything I dreamed of
But in the by and by.
Because I wasn't ready
And a future I could not see,
I let my one love slip away.
A time for us was not to be.
