Heal

One shining moment

Dulled by time

Patience is a virtue

But no virtue of mine

I took what I wanted

I used it at will

Now bruised and battered

I hope it will heal

My future is unfolding

Change is a must

Flowing in slow motion

Afraid I will bust

I had what I wanted

I called it at will

Left bruised and battered

I pray it will heal

Dusk turns to morning

Sun lights the day

My mind starts to wander

I’ve said all I can say

I hate what I wanted

I caved to my will

Hurt, bruised, and battered

My God, let it heal!
