Not Yet My Time
For Lacey
I've dated them all
The good and the bad
I've felt all the pain
Again I've been had
I kept on looking
For the guy of my dream
The guy who would love me
And treat me like a queen
I looked far and wide
But each time I found
I'd be left alone
With no one around
"Is this my fault?" I asked
As I began to cry
And then I heard a voice,
"He's not the right guy."
"You keep on looking
For something you cannot find
It just has to come to you
When it is your time."
My heart spoke the words
That helped me understand
Some day he would find me
And come take my hand.
Until then I'll walk on
To my own reason and rhyme
When he finds me, he finds me-
It's not yet my time.
