Takes Time

You woke me up.
To fall a sleep-
Takes time, takes time, takes time.

I should make efforts
To give up
Your touch, your kiss, your smile??

Forgive insistance.
Stupid me..
No rights to dream of you.

Takes time 
Repair broken heart
And conquer body too.

As you grow older you grow wiser, and finally understand that time does heal... well done Marianna! Best wishes, Keith (PS Joseph Brodsky, your countryman, is one of my favourite poets.)

I really love this poem Marianna because I can relate to it so easily. Nigel
