As Time Passes

Looking back with laughter and tears, 
 hindsight clarifies the years
 and quickly as time passes
 we see the past in rose-colored glasses.

The haze of innocence fades
 with every experience taken and made
 knowing now, everything done in youth
 eventually finds its own truth.

Mistakes made in time
 no longer plague the mind
 they were a well-learned lessons
 gifted by time blessings.

You and me
 we were meant to be
 and every lesson earned
 was paid and learned.
