On Given Time

1

Have you ever liked someone so much that you daydream about them a lot?

Well that's what it's like with me.

I really like him, it was the same way around. We both made a mistake that day.

That day is one I'll never forget.

I prayed to the lord that it was all a dream that I wasn't at the police station with detectives yelling at me to tell the truth.

Only I kept my mouth shut. Because I wasn't ready to lose the man I love.

I needed him, he was my support. He was there for everything and with him gone, there isn't anything left for us.

I told him to go. I made him leave so he wouldn't get tracked down. I knew they'd find him if the police were that desperate.

I was sitting in that chair for hours. For hours I sat there in silence because I wasn't about to admit anything. I'm not a snitch.

I know that this wasn't about me or him. It was about my parents.

They never liked him. They only saw the bad instead of the good. I can't help that. But now they won't stop until he's locked away for good.

Now because of that, we are on the run.

Running from my parents and my mom.

It'll never end. Not until we're caught.

And I don't plan on giving up that soon.

Neither of us do. We'll stay strong.

We won't get caught.
