8 February 2022

Time, my friend, my enemy

We never saw eye to eye

You told me to let it be

But I couldn’t

Set myself free

From the handcuffs of memories

Of pain & suffering

Forever torturing, testing me

I just couldn’t let it be

I sparked a flame

I couldn’t cease

Burned myself 

To get rid of thee

My only regret it seems

Was to not be in the present me

And I have the tendency

To not allow myself to climb the tree

Of hope and independency 

You always got me on my knees

And now here’s my candidacy 

Forgive me for the dependency 

Blaming you for being never there for me

Because I never valued thee

I wish I could go back & change

But then I wouldn’t be me

Time, you magnificent son of a bitch

I never saw you coming, 

I never thought twice of yee,

The memories shackled my soul

I kept burning my dreams

Some blame on you, some blame on me

And all I had to do was let it be

You were enough 

I was enough 

I just couldn’t let it be
