Of time and of love

Of time and of love

Did you know...
thereโ€™s a time machine inside you and I?

a myth to those who cannot see it
yet to me a journey most definitely possible ย 

from two-thousand and twenty-four
right back to nineteen-eighty-nine
in a blink of an eye

who could deny my magnificent mind?
or of that youthful love that once was?

withered with the rose petals of time
faded in-between life and death itself

thus drifting from a once young lover

falling into the frailest of hands
and then onto the wisest of hearts
that has many a tale to tell.

Mine can be...

โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹5 minutes can feel like an hour...

3 hours can feel like 1 hour...

People ask me the time sometimes...

Then I realize...

Great question...

Other times it's like...

That's all it is?

Hello dear Raechel Ray, so very kind of you to come by here, I have studied love since I was born really, every single type but my favourite of all is romantic love and I really am so very humbled you have come by to read and to leave a lovely review. Thank you. It is always better to be alone than with the wrong person I've been there and done that, I have a poetry book all about it. One of my own personal favourites is called butterflies are rare because it's here if you ever want to read it, but actually most everything I write is about love thank you so much . ๐ŸŒน
