Love Poem: Life-Time

Life-Time

I gave her this locket
So that she locks in time,
So that I stay with her a little longer
Every time that I'm by her 

She told me that when she's with me time moves so fast
And she didn't want me to hurry
That I would better finish late than fast
Cause I always got the strength to carry on 

She told me she needed time to be by her side
So that she's never late anymore 
For she'd hate to have to hide
As she grows more and more 

So that when it's the right time
She'll feel it all break from in
And have to race with time
Cause it would be time to get out, not stay in 

I gave her this locket
And she chose to lock it
So that she never has to see the time
When I'll be gone
