    Given Time

    Given time all is forgiven
    Given hope all else will fade
    Given chance the sky is riven
    Given time the world is made

    Only life can hold the boundry
    Only hands can hold ones fate
    Only actions make a difference
    Only if it just can't wait

    Every heartbeat knows its shadow
    Every waking breath its kin
    Every moment knows what follows
    Every glimmer shines again

    Each road leads to destination
    Each path leads a different way
    Each thought brings a hint of substance
    Each life slowly slips away

    So live a life of desparation
    So hold to every breath you take
    So think to ponder all ambition
    So know yourself for your own sake

    Thank you for accepting my thoughts a poetic .

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
