This Time

This Time

A Poem by falling_toxic_rain

And is it for once-this ship has sailed

From where you stand it’s the dot in the far horizon

Should have left earlier

Hope you understand sooner than later

 

I’ve been out in sea for so long I’ve lost track of time

There is no reflection-there is no emotion

Hoping to find home soon enough

Can’t come back and do it again

 

And is it for once-this ship has sailed

From where you stand I’m hoping you remember

Wish I would have never left

Hope you understand sooner than later

 

I’ve been caught at sea, the ship rocks from side to side

This storm will finally be the last of me

They shout abandon ship

 

This time I’m not leaving

It’s finally my time to die

 

Wake up-my body washed ashore where you once stood

I can never call this place home I’m falling out of every corner

 

This time I’m not leaving

I will find the place

And for once I’ll come to look

From where I stand I’ll find the brighter place

Should have left earlier, finally doing this for me

Hoping I’ll find a sure place

 

I’ll travel the long narrow roads

(All by myself)

I’m not afraid of this anymore

I’ve proofed I’m stronger than I was before

 

The time has come to realize

This time I’m not running

The time has come to make a move

This time I won’t ever need you

 

The time has come to realize

This time I’m not running

The time has come to make a move

This time I won’t ever need you
