Array ( [sid] => 50042 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => (Time) My Personal War [time] => 2004-06-01 20:32:05 [hometext] => Time...Everything great...takes Time...I hate Time...I want you back now Diana, but I will wait forever. I will win the battle over the Time it will take. I love you, and when I have you back, TIME will stand still. [bodytext] => There’s ten million words that I want to write
And sometimes I don’t care if they rhyme
As long as it just feels good to me
And it’s helping me to pass the (Time).

‘Cause (Time) will be a “cause of death” for me
Each day we don’t share the same home
So I’m sitting here now, all by myself
And I’m missing you, as I write this poem.

I’ve grown strong enough to make it through
And I love you so much, I can wait
It’s just hurts me deep, this being apart
I just want to get our lives straight.

Thank God I am back to working again
That kills at least eight hours a day
Then driving erases, another hour more
Leaves me fifteen, to write and to pray.

I’m hoping that both, will keep my alive
Until we’re back together once more
If I could just sleep for some of that (Time)
Then (Time) wouldn’t be My Personal War. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 185 [topic] => 61 [informant] => Joker17 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

Do you know how great that first stanza is? Millions of words...thats great and I am so glad you didnt rhyme. The (time) in parenthesis was very original. This poem was clean clear and very memorable.

time is a double edge sword. it can create or destroy.
