Time To

When there isn't time allowed for healing the wounds will continually reopen..

I could've been yours
You would have been mine
We should be together but
I believed you needed time

Time to reflect
From the places you'd been
Time to recuperate
Surviving the hell you were in
Time to salvage
What was left of your heart
Time to repair
All that was torn apart
Time to reestablish
Who you once were
Time to clarify
Anything with a blur
Time to reclaim
Some of what you lost
Time to regain
The confidence it cost
Time to strengthen
Standing on your own
Time for grace
Because you aren't alone
Time to hurt
Accept that you do
Time to heal
From the pain you went through

I hope with time
That you will see
How much you truly
Mean to me
Time can make hearts
And thoughts fade away
But my love for you will stay
As it was, is, now and always.

Am getting a reflection on love, patience, and hope. A longing to give a lover time. Time to heal and rebuild. Your closing lines affirm some unconditional love. Well penned
