In Time

A Poem Pondering Time

With Growth there is change, everything has a season
Without doubt there is no faith, everything has a reason
If not for success then failure wouldn’t hurt as bad
But with no opportunity to fail, success isn’t worth being had
They say wisdom comes in time, but I’m trapped in its flow
Waiting for time to release me from these dreaded crossroads
I’ve learned patience is important, and laughter helps
Friendships build character, but learn your true self
It’s ok to be afraid, that’s the beginning of courage
And if you really really want something, simply ask for it
There is no true purpose in life, be what you chose to be
They say wisdom comes in time, but I’m trapped in its mystery

In all our deeds, the proper value and respect for time determines success or failure.
-Malcolm X.
