Let Us Give It Time

Patiently I strode down the 
alley
Narrowly moving past the 
broad valley
Hurry, a voice in my heart 
shouts
You won’t find any scouts
Stout I stand and aloud I 
shout

Lord please show me your 
way
It’s now just a month past 
May
But I feel this’ too much for 
another day
Help! How does one run 
away from love?
Yes, running away from 
what one may have.

For now, I like you; I fight 
the fact that I love you
love is so big a word, I 
don’t want to hurt you
Just like the brightness of 
flowers in the morning dew
We’ve had bright times, not 
just a few
But Just like fine wine love 
grows with time, that’s not 
new.

Let’s give it time, that’s all I 
ask
For what lies ahead is a 
greater task
Please don’t be sad by dusk
From you that’s all I ask
For the good times and 
smiles, I say thanks.
