Out of Time

do you think that it was luck
said your time was almost up
studying this page
interesting reading
a mystery to unravel

a surprise in a small package
a present for your soul
a gift for your mind
tied up with pretty ribbon
waiting to be unwrapped

it wasn't just luck
kismet more like it
the stars aligned
planets in a row
as they orbit around you
the things you see in me
are hiding in you as well

with sleight of hand
you may try to disappear
smoke and mirrors left
from the time you were there
I can see it all
a prophecy foretold
written on the wind
as the chapters will unfold
