you’ll be mine until morning
I don’t believe in wrong timing.
Nor do I believe that forever must be everlasting.
Everything has its time.
It just may not be the timing you would have liked.
Read that again,
its a hard pill to swallow.
It’s so absurd to blame the social construct of time
to why we do not get our way.
When you learn to trust the flow
of people coming in and out of your life
as they should,
like the rising tides of the ocean.
You will find peace with each relationship.
You will have people promise you forever.
This is inevitable when wearing your heart on your sleeve.
Remember this my love,
forever is a perceived reality,
no one knows how long it lasts.
Sometimes this forever will expire
six o’clock on Sunday morning
and this promise of forever
will be shown by the impact they leave on you
for the remainder of your life.
One that was lived unapologetically and filled with love,
but it does not guarantee their presence.
So the next time someone makes the promise of forever
upon your gentle heart,
take it with a grain of salt
and trust that forever will last as long as it is meant to.
P.S. the tide only remains low until morning.
