Give It Time

"Give it time", they said.
"How much", I said.
"Who knows", they replied from a distance.
"I'll try", I believed.

Fast forward a little bit.

"This is a bad idea", they said.
"How so", I said.
"You'll see, that's all", they replied from a distance.
"We'll see", I believed.

You crossed the street.

"They're wrong", I said.
