Present tense

When
you
think

Do
you
know

I see
you

past
present
future

Though
you
believe
our
time is
short

I
see it
long

Because

What's
passed
has
given
me
future

 
 

Gifts from my lover

 
 

Simple facts

The sun rises

There are
two
parts
to
our
week

The part
when
you
are away
at work
in another state

I can call you
then
but not
see you

The moon rises

The sun rises

Then
the part
of the week
when you
are here

I see you
on every
one
of
those days
but
I can't
call
you

The moon rises

The sun rises

Our love never sets

I cry ...in a good way

My
love
you
care
for me
in
every
way

You
care
so
much
it
could
be
scary
but
it's
not

It's
sweet
fullfilling
and so
enriching

I cry
when
I
think
of
how
much
you
love
me

 
 

I want more

I
love
when
you
tease
me
so
tenderly

Push
me
to
open

Taunt
me
to
accept
you

I
take
you
willingly

There
isn't
enough

Some things a woman notices

Honey
it
just
occurred
to
me
that
even
if
we
don't
kiss
you
could
go
home
reeking
of
my
cooking

 
 

Light as air

My love

You
want
to marry
me

You
think

Are
you
sure

I
love
you
intensely

I revel
in
your
desire
for
me

I
long
for you
hourly

I
too
wish
our
life
wasn't
measured
in
drams
and
drops

Droplets
that
sparkle
like jewels
nonetheless

Our
only
measure
of
reality
is the
increments
of
time
we've carved
inside
your
other life

Perhaps
we
should
stay
as we are

floating
in
our
bubble

My secret husband

Takes
sweet
care
of
his
secret
wife

 
 

Ma bebe

Makes me
come
like
I
have
an
on
and
off
switch

Only
he
has
the
code

 
 

For the want of a nail...

You
lament
what
might
be
lost
because
of
time
that
has
already
gone
by

I'm
thankful
for
a
love
I
thought
would
never
be

The windows of the soul

When
we make love
all
I see
is the green
in
your
hazel
eyes

flecks
of intensity
driving
me on

 
 

What I can't do

I
want
to
give
you
a leather
valet
for the
top
of your
bureau

I want to give you
a locket
key
chain
with
a photo
of
me
in
it

A
monogrammed
money clip
sterling
silver

And
cologne

Acqua di Gio

But

I
can't
because

I'm
not
your
wife
