Time

How much time ‘til a heart has healed?
Should it always be a lengthy wait?
Feelings restrained, bound and sealed,
Expected to live a solitary fate.

Should it always be a lengthy wait?
“Enjoy being single”, people say,
Expected to live a solitary fate,
Avoid a rebound come what may.

“Enjoy being single”, people say,
Learn to love the inner you,
Avoid a rebound come what may,
Let your spirit sprout and renew.

Learn to love the inner you,
Use the time for soulful reflection,
Let your spirit sprout and renew,
What if you make a new connection?

Use the time for soulful reflection,
Look within and then you will see,
What if you make a new connection?
Only you decide just when to be free.

Look within and then you will see,
Feelings restrained, bound and sealed,
Only you decide just when to be free,
How much time ‘til a heart has healed?
