    Time


    Time is all I have to give you
    Don’t waste your time
    Giving me some BS excuse

    I know the road you take
    The person you chose as your mate
    The baby you didn’t mean to make

    Dear diary, he hurt me again today
    I don’t have to write that anymore
    Because he’s out of my way

    To a better life
    A better man
    A better dream
    A better plan

    A better chance
    A better goal
    No need to take the wrong roads
    I’ve learned from what time has shown

    For I know what the future holds
    A brighter day
    A better way
    A new love
    No more mistakes

    But a new kind of intake
    Of love
    From another man
    Maybe his will be able to withstand
    Against anything
    That this complicated relationship may bring
    Someone who knows how to dream

    One who uses their imagination
    Takes the time out to show love and is patient
    When we’re together we make the perfect shape

    And it’s sort of hard to explain exactly what I want
    Because I don’t want just something plain and simple
    I want something brown skinned with dimples

    But then again he shouldn’t be perfect
    I need to know that he’s a least a little human
    So give him a few pimples

    So I’m leaving the old
    And starting a new
    So whatever boy happens to read this

    What about you?

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
