If Always Is As Long As Forever

I shall love you always though in the brief moment of that promise I shall leave you to search and destroy the enemy with your sweet scents of lilacs lingering on my mind Scents buried deeply to recall the many fragrances of your body still in my moments of distress I pray that in your lonely times when desire beckons You will still wait for me To give me the pleasure of bathing you with these hands that desperately want to hold your nakedness I shall love you always if always is as long as forever In that interminable absence eons may come and go and oceans of light years roll through heaven but any length of time will not deter my love Nor will the vast distances of hot desert sands I shall return like a loggerhead turtle Returns to its nesting grounds For its mate Keep the faith, my sweetness, I shall soon be next to you to cup your breasts in the palm of my hand and taste your tender skin With my tongue I shall always love you if always is as long as forever but pray for my safe return as I pray to return to you.
