Only For You
My eyes overloaded
my tongue in duress
—I have to say I love you in a poem
Time of no consequence
my heart in distress
—as my pen becomes timeless and flowing
This moment is yours
its memory mine
—as the lines are unspoken but true
To tell you just once
what forever I’ll feel
—in these words written only for you
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2018)
