It’s Time

It was evident

But not to me

I couldn’t see it

My mind was free

So obvious to all

Yet I was blind

Didn’t have a clue

Nothing on my mind

Right there in the open

So hard to miss

Loud and out there 

In a stupor of bliss

But it was really fine

No need to worry

I’d just relax

Let others hurry

Then time caught up to me

There was nowhere to go

Couldn’t run or hide

Now I had to know

Love abounded

The time was right

With joy unrestrained

I gave up without a fight

Now I’m resigned

There is no choice

I’ve learned to live with it

But I can’t hear my voice
