It Is Time

it is time ...
the clock has struck the midnight hour,
and again as once before it's time for me to go
so please before the last chime rings,
leave me with one last kiss
a kiss that defies this four letter word
this curse we call time
this constant that is ever changing,
this thing that is everything and nothing,
everywhere and nowhere,
all our yesterdays, today and tomorrows.
a builder of hope,
a destroyer of dreams,
a false friend and unbeatable foe,
it is endless, no matter how much is spent,
there's always more to come, just not for you and me,
it is a thief who in the end takes everything,
and who this night shall rob us of each other
but these moments, these stolen moments of time
shall never be taken back
for they are locked here...
in my heart
and have become one with my soul
to be forever guarded by love
and love is more than a four letter word
come
kiss me my sweet prince
and whisper goodnight
for it is time
and I must go
