To Love You

From the time it takes the sun to come into our eyes To when we have said some goodbyes That’s how long it takes And in between we communicate through deep sighs From the time I start watching the clock To when we lose all sense of time That’s how long it takes Two different beats finally making one song We learn, we love to play along From the time it takes a child to build his house To when it gets knocked down That’s how long it takes For us to summit a mountain And become royal in a world Where only we know how to dream From the time it takes for this feeling to grow And cover our scars and bind us as one That’s how long it takes And even longer if we need To journey until discovery is lost or forgotten From the time when we met To when we die That’s how long it takes Always stay by my side

There's an old saying that love heals all wounds. Forgiveness and compassion are so necessary to survival. A variant says that TIME heals all wound, and that it wounds all heels. I prefer the love version. A very deep-felt poem, Reagan !
