It Is Time

Somewhere not very far from me Is a couple of people I long to meet Something that has plagued my head everyday Isn't actually a world away 12 years later I made a move I'm nearly 30 so I have nothing to prove But what really can I say To a family who only found out about me today Do I say hello, how do you do? Or is it more why am I here for? How do I start to say…. I'm your granddaughter…I'm here to say hey What’s the response I'm really looking for To be honest even I'm not very sure But don’t welcome me with open arms For then I'm sure my heart you’ll harm Take that step, knock on the door Maybe I’ll find what I've been searching for Or maybe all I’ll get to see Is where I come from and what makes me It’s a decision I soon must make I cannot leave this up to fate watch another 30 years pass by With always that question; why oh why? So here I go I'm on my way My life is going to change today ……..Something that has plagued my head everyday Isn't actually a world away!
