For Granted

Time

we think we 

have enough

but we don't 

not even close

so what do we do

we take it for granted 

that's what I did

now I'm alone

watching the parade

pass by 

crying

praying it isn't real

but knowing it is

opportunities

happiness

gone 

remembering

those three words

I just can't 

hurts

but I did that

taking for granted

what mattered most

and who mattered most

so what's next

anything

is there anything left

of me

to figure that out

I need more time

time

we think we

have enough 

but we don't

not even close
