For All Time

time moves
backwards in
slow motion
and then forward
all at once
in a lifetime
I breathe her in
like sunshine
spring is in
her young girl's
step when she
wants something
and she wants
something at night
stars connect
the constellation
of her soul
for all time

Forrest, this is a beautiful poem where love plays on the scales of time and you tune your steps to both:) Amitiés
