#6 Poem-A-Day: Love Me In The Now

There are stories

that go ON
                         Forever

There are stories that
last
                          A few moments

I do not have an eternity with you
                       
                           I do have love that lasts
                           for as long as I have breath

And really having breath is an eternity

Do not concern yourself with my mortality

                           You waste time with trying to know the hour

When I go it will be like a cool breeze blowing across your brow

                             Love me in the now.

Tomorrow is a long held dream.
