Ma bebe

You
say
if we had met
as many years ago
as
it would have taken
for us to be prodigious
with offspring
you would
have kept me
verdant
with
life
for a number
of
years

Damn
only the greatest
regret of
my life

I never
had a child
with
anyone
I could
build
a universe with


No questions

Because
still
I am
only grateful
that our love
has had the chance
to occur

I want
to squeeze
every
ounce
of joy
from
every minute
we have

I
love you so
much

My
dearest
deepest
darling
