Eye Dropper

Eye dropper slow
I understand we have to go low
We have to wait for another glow
Of this once-in-awhile love

About this once-in-awhile love
Can we have a barter trade?
So once-in-awhile can be everyday
Or shouldn't I say?
Only thing I can do is pray

A drop of love is sometimes enough to sustain us. Still I believe you deserve more than mere sustenance! I hope your prayer is answered and love pours down in warm torrential rains until you are blissfully soaked and satiated!
