Time was once so precious

A poem on the love one can still feel for someone so much farther than the street corner

 

Time was once so precious,

Now there is far too much.

With death, came a new love.

In sorrow, I’m happy.

I have you by my side.

“Love where there’s a soul,”

It makes so much sense now.

You brighten up my world.

You give me a reason.

This brand new emotion,

I know to be sweeter

When we combine out love.

Though we are competing

To show each other love,

It lives on wild and large.

Our love is all unique,

Reserved for you and me.

Though our time limited,

Remember, “I love you”

And I know you do too

Because we both feel it.

Forever it shall be

With my pure love for you,

And yours equally strong.

Lord, may we some day meet.
