Time

Time has been our enemy

It has set limitations on how long I can hold you

How long I can kiss you

How long I can stare into your soul through your beautiful bold eyes

I guess we are all slaves to time

It is a prison whose bars and walls cannot be seen but its presence can be felt

I wish I could kill time.

Bury it in another dimension so it can no longer dictate how long I can be with you

Once time is dead we will be together for eternity.

Our kisses will last forever

Your warm embrace will know no end

I understand why God sacrificed His Son so we may have eternal life

God hates time too

Heaven is a place where we are eternal inundated with God’s love

I want us to go there

Until that time that God calls us we must put up with our great foe

We must enjoy every moment that time allows us

We must patiently wait until time’s time is up and we can share a love with God

Where our souls will be together and forever literally means forever
