Timeless Love
Let time stand still while I look at you.
Let the universe.
And all its infinite wonder pause.
While I stand here with my love rolling off my sleeves
And landing upon your shoulders.
You'll understand when you are older.
That time is in fact an illusion.
Let so called time stand still while I gaze into your eyes
and collect all its possibilities.
You want to be a little piece of everything my love.
Let the earth stand stagnant while you decide what you want to do in college.
Let all that knowledge your father
and I poured into you fall intellectually onto clean blank white pages.
Let knowledge from all the ages be injected deep into your bloodstream.
I hope so-called time stands still for you my dear,
when you meet the man of your dreams.
Then you will find out that the journey is greater than the destination, my love.
And when you have a child I want you to lay to rest the illusion of time.
Look deep into your child's eyes
and don't think of how much time you have to love one another,
but how much love you have to give.
Let time stand alone and let so-called time stand still.
