I've heard it said
All things take time
Healing a heart
Filling a mind
But in a second
You are left behind

Forgotten alone
Love is a dream
Friendships faded
I silently scream
Someone wake me
What does this mean?

Perhaps time changes
Who we really are
And wishes are wasted
On shiny falling stars
Catching fireflies
To keep in a jar

Wondering why
And who we've become
Will we ever be
That special someone
What comes next
Where are we from

If all things take time
How much time remains
For us to find ourselves
And deal with our pains
Be our true selves
Without fear or shame

Realizing no rules
Apply to this game
It takes some time
To find we're the same
