poetry about her

if you're looking for forever

i'll take the batteries out of my clocks-

so that we'll be stuck inside this moment

as if time really stopped

i would tell you i love you every second,

except here seconds do not exist.

so i'll say i love you with each breath,

with each smile,

with each kiss,

and when i die,

you can crank your watch,

restart you clock, begin the time.

and know that we were infinite

in the moment that you're mine
