you make me wish
i could stretch the seconds flat
so that my time with you can last forever.
we don’t know if we’ll still
hold each other close every morning
or have each other to lean on
years from now.
years
a year
weeks
a second
we might last forever
or we might become memories we ponder
when we reach a forever without each other.
but i will try
i will try to grasp your hand
as tightly as i can
as we approach the time ahead.
and even though we might not have a lifetime,
let us try to make it through what time has in store.
and if we don’t end together
i pray that we can still glance at each other
from miles apart and still smile
at something that made
us dream about the slightest possibility
of a forever.

even if you’re not the one, i’m glad you’re here now
