When The Time Comes
By: Zanthia Aldones

"I thought the tears were gone,
I thought I was over him,
I thought I could move on...

But I was wrong,
I find myself still saying,
That I love him...

Slowly I am letting go,
As I find that I am saying that
Lesser and lesser these days...

Eventually my heart,
Will once again,
Belong to me...

And when it does,
I will guard it more carefully,
I will be more cautious,
When I let someone in...

I will make sure that,
He won't get too close,
Too soon...

When the time is right,
I will let him see what's in my heart,
But only when the time is right...
And only when I have finally let go..."
