Time After Time

Time
is not 
the measure 
of love. 

I do not 
love you 
more today 
than I did 

yesterday, 
and tomorrow 
I will not 
love you less. 

You cannot 
earn more 
of my love 
with sweet words 

and kind gestures 
(although, darling, 
I would smile 
at your 

small gifts, 
and thank 
the heaven 
that sent you) 

and your sullen 
and solitary ways 
will only bring 
my love 

and pity. 
Time is not 
the measure 
of love: 

what is
eternal 
cannot be 
contained.
