Only Time...

Only time may tell a keeper's heart
What has been lost and torn apart
Two lovers drowning, one at sea
The other in hands of destiny

Broken crossroads, old and new
Love that shone, darkness that grew
What's there to discern, truth and lies
Passion long waned from a dreamer's eyes

What spring bestows, winter takes
Only time may mend a frosted heart's break
Trees left barren, icy rains sweep
No more the hopes, as shattered dreams weep

Just beyond the sunset, lies eternity
So take my hands and fly with me
But its time's charade, for there's just grey
Nothing out there that just won't fade

A whisper to leave, a dewdrop to shed
Only time may tell, what's been left unsaid
The other side to black beauty's face
A tears' trek retraced, as sorrows embrace
