Wasting Time

Wasting time on careless things
Ignoring what life fruitfully brings
Life's gifts become over looked trinkets
and people loose track...of everything

We ignore what is ours until its taken away
Till someones sun won't shine and flowers won't sway
Till the moon goes dark, and love can't stay
Then we realize just how much it is

When we realize there were words left unspoken
Love left cold and bare
Thoughts held up in the darkest places
Never to be known by those who needed it.
