8 MINUTES

Folder: 
JOURNAL #36

imagine my sweet, sweet man
all the things that we could share
together in a mere 8 minutes
an 8 minute kiss
during an 8 minute cuddle
an 8 minute massage that leads to
an 8 minute nap
or an 8 minute waltz
like you've wished
around say even the living room perhaps
with an 8 minute gaze into
each others tender eyes
so filled with love that lands on
a warm laugh
8 minutes is not a lot of time
but tonight I find
I can be quite in total awe
of any 8 little minutes
that brings me closer to
the man God intended to be
forever mine
and tonight
I just wanted you to know
that you gave me the very first
of so many more 8 minutes between us
to come
so this is my loving thank you
written as it were
at a mere 8 minutes until one..................................

Author's Notes/Comments: 

though this poem is but a little over 6 months old it too was one written for the same person and my attempt to protect him but even though it is less still time has insulated him and now I can post this poem without any worry or censure................
