Today's Time....

The time
The time
The time has come to lift me up from that storm
The time has come to give my time here no more
The time has come for me to stop...waiting to explore
TODAY is new and all it ever was before
It stays behind me as I open up new doors
Bold breeze behind me as it pushes me forward
I stand aligned this time as I greet a new days dawn
Because
Because
Because the time has come...our time has...come with time~
The time has come to lift me up off this ride
To let me leave my past infinitely behind
Life can be kind
I know I've been warned ~ I've been warned...
Anyway....It's time
It's time to greet a new days dawn...
I recognized my worth and ....the road's been too long
All that there could be done...was practically done...
Now it's time....to greet today's rising sun~
I say
I say
I say ....It's time to greet the days rising sun~!


(Dedicated to Melisa my best friend for life~)

Well I am so glad to have come across this gem. What you have done here is create a beautiful and unique poem. I think it is great that you class this as lyric because the repetition of it gives it a melody. The line sttructure is brilliant. 'I stand aligned this time as I greet a new days dawn' has an originality that shows a great deal of inventiveness and the use of 'aligned' and 'time' to create a ringing sound is wonderful.
