Time

Time

In one step,
With one breath,
Look ahead.
Reach for the other side.
There's no door anymore. 
Every inch is open wide.

Step through.
I'm always with you.
I won't let you go.
I won't let you fall.
I understand if you feel scared, 
but please just don't say no.
There's no need to make any plans.
Everything has been prepared. 

Time is running out.
Just look all around. 
The silence has made its final sound.
Now that's something to think about.

Follow me and you'll be okay.
It may not happen right away. 
Remember, there's always a time to work.
There's always a time to play.
Think about that time today.
