Turning Back Time

Where would you go if you could turn back the time?
And just where in life would you stop?
Would you relive some moment that's special to you,
Perhaps say something you had forgot?

If I could I'd be surrounded by family,
And tell them I love them so,
I would say all the things I could have once said,
But was too late when their time came to go.

Oh yes I think of the opportunities I've had,
To express understanding and compassion,
How sad that those words just never came out,
The one's I could not seem to fashion.

But is it really too late to say all the things,
That we failed to imply at the time?
Words were left hanging on the tips of our tongue,
Can now be relayed through our mind.

Repeat to yourself all the words that you kept,
And transfer them to those whom you wish,
You won't see them like you could back in time,
But will be heard by those whom you miss.
