It Was Time Poem by Letter From My Mother's Womb

It was time - Understand

Death on earth,
Desperation on mission,
Will this sound like a myth?
Wait; for a description...

I loved her, she left
I loved him, he left
To a land of no return, to their formation
They're now buried, in their home, tombstones!

You loved mommy,
You have a chance to love daddy,
You loved daddy,
You have a chance to love mommy.

What do you do?
What do you do when there's no chance,
Chance to express your love to them?
Your parents?

What do you do when you loose your brother,
Your sister,
Your parents,
And yourself?

How do you go back?
How do you go back when you can't turn back?
Back the clock?
Do you end to everyone's feet, like a sock?

Do you beg?
Any chance you'll have, to brag?
When time's gone,
Death had taken them?

It was time, understand
