Only Time of Now

For all those years I loved you mean nothing to me now their stories scatter in autumnal winds and all their longings reach an end time of now, today, only dreams of tomorrow and only time of now, yearns for you Wasted days of memories no more to turn their tourniquet their cold heart strings snapped and vanquished their tightened regret only this time now and only now my heart discovered you Gone is lachrymose love it’s dark eyed stain haunts no day nor whimpers in it’s sorrow such as it was, was burned away, by a smile and there only now it lay in your arms and whispered of love deep to my soul Farewell then gray nights of grayer days upon your sea of unrequited pass to the celestial mist these things they matter not no longer carry their empty cup but poured from the very kernel of life this vessel is filled Hello, it is, my love to be born again, your name, upon my tongue time of now only for today longs for you tomorrow for in each kiss was placed a breathless truth and each moment spoke out loud of love and my love has grown inside you Hi there, it is, my beautiful just as your laughter is my own declaration as your eyes hold me in enchantment hand in hand this birth entwined this love of mine for you Time of now, today, only dreams of tomorrow and only time of now, yearns for you
