Three Seconds Lost To Time
Three Seconds Lost To Time
Three seconds lost to time
A short time to most
An eternity to others
Asked for a kiss I froze
Stood there silently wondering what to do
It was a kiss I hoped for
Dreaming about it night after night
The kiss had to wait
The words of love flowed from you
So many times I heard those three words
I wanted to tell you but I couldn’t
That kiss would have shared my feelings
If only I had given you the kiss you asked for
Just three seconds so many years ago
How did they change my life?
I will never know
So many seconds have passed since then
So many kisses
So many I love yous spaced over the years
Thinking back I miss those three seconds
Missing what they could have preordained
Wondering what that kiss could have meant
Alas those seconds are lost
Gone, taken by the Fates
Given to someone else who would value them
I can only think back and wonder
What would those three second have meant in my life
But that is all I can do…wonder
