Parallel Universe

By Stephanie Sideways

I did dream for more time
Wish and want for proper time
A first date....wine and dine
The cinema your hand in mine
A first time lips meet
An evening stroll along any street
A first mornings kissed
Nay this universe missedÂ
That moment in the past was lost
Then permitting only time at cost
At an inconvenient date
Drawn together all too late
Precious sand falls by gravity's ask
Hear the ticking futility as deceptiveÂ hours pass
Time wistfully wasted
Longings end Â is sorrowfully tastedÂ
No will toÂ wash my hands of kin
A life time made and saved here in
Pitiful heart beats on
Invested hearts continue strong

We do operate on two different levels at times, very acute observation and sometimes we can't go back, but it's always good to go home, thanks Stephy.
