Time waits for No one

As that old troubador Rod Stewart would sing,
Time waits for no one and I`ll not wait on you,
you would have truly worn that wedding ring,
one day you will have these reflections too,

Maybe not now, not straight away,
but something will eventually trigger the past,
and you may regret the words you spoke that day,
you could have tried a little harder to make it last,

In time thoughts will come across your mind,
why your pride and quick resolution to say were through,
of lost love from a man who was honest, caring and kind,
the spectre of lost love will always haunt you too,

So keep your pride and stubborness within,
time waits for no one and I`ll not wait on you,
their will never be another day to try again or begin,
it is plain and simple now we are through.

About this poem:
Listening to music and "Time waits for no one" has plenty of meaning for both parties when a split occurs. Whether we like to or not we all tend to look back and think the magic words "What if?"

Steve, comrade,
the only "What if?", I have is "What if
I were born with a brain in my head that
could think more wisely and over-rule the
impulsivity of the head between my legs!professor
Great Write Steve!cheers
