Too Little Too Late

Too little too late.
Those are words I hate.
So many visions created in mind.
No further time but hopes intertwined.

Case in point, no time to ponder.
I wonder still could it be yonder.
God does say when the best is over,
But clinging tightly to dreams as a lover.

Cold in hope, and hot in dreams.
Knowing above how little it means,
When scheming hearts wanted me to fail,
But in the end, there is a story that I shall tell.

People who know will understand,
People who don’t will be wiped from my land.
In a thunderous bolt, idiocy ran,
Knowing they couldn’t devour the plan—it stands.
