Lessons Learned

Time, you can not comprehend
Until it is gone
Leaving a life that you can’t transcend
With regrets that can not be withdrawn

Hope can bloom
Like a tulip in the spring
But a darkness can quickly consume
Leaving the brightest of lights with no king

Love is patient
But patience takes time
We do not live till we are ancient
And that is the crime

Life is precious
But only if you know first hand
It can leave you breathless
Or it can leave you damned
