Golden Time

_________________________________

I never thought that it would ever come to an end

I took a picture in my mind but it didn't send

Looking back on it now it was just pretend

That empty promise to remember was false pretence

It was supposed to be a treasure that time won't steal away

But if I asked you now, you'd claim they were words you didn't say

So I planted the seeds of it all into my heart

But it didn't bloom, four seasons passed and I was back at the start

Wilted and weathered

The memories were tethered to my soul

I'll hold onto the present because it's mine

Every second, every breath will be my golden time
