A Time To Come

there are days
when i glimpse a time i've never known
and know some thing i never have

there are times
when my spirit races to the future
and i thrill at what im meant to have

there are moments
when i live ahead of my life
and i miss something i've not yet known

there is a time to come
in which i love a man and know him well
but when i return to now, it's like a lonely farewell
