John Loving Iii Poet Free verse

Closing Argument

Time no longer exist between you and me
Space is something that locks a door between
will and what will be
Dreams are just illusions I let myself pretend
Memories are the facts I establish
to make my court room stand
Pain is my witness that will not be denied
Love is my defense dressed in all it's pride
Rain, the number of tears
and wishes my sunshine
Hope and Faith are one in the same
message in my mind
Yet and still every year
this question I must ask
For it has been decreed
that I must do this task
Sence love is time and time is love
and love doesn't always pass 
Will you be my Valentine
this year and through the last
 


(As always this time of year this is for my April)
