Defying Time

Time was never on our side Even when we wish for it to be It is always beyond the control of you and me It is like helping to widen the divide Our timing never seem to be in line Wishing for the union not to end Will take a miracle to mend But our hearts remain entwine…

Gosh, what we would give indeed for time to be on our side? You've expressed the dilemma here quite well-- way to go missy-- speaking of time I gotta run in about 10 mins-- heeehee -- enjoy your day! -- hugs nikko :)
