Thru Infinity

Infinity

A fascinating concept

I ponder often

I feel I've known you for it

...and beyond

As though I could share every drugstore romance

Whispered in your ear

While sipping cherry coke through a candy striped bendy straw

Your hand like a claw

On my thigh on a Friday night in July

Whether its caviar and ice wine

Or laying on a flatbed behind the ballpark bleachers

A downtown high rise 

It's still the same stars, the same sky

Do you see this moon tonight?

Pregnant and ripe

Filled with promise?

Tomorrow though,

Same stars, same sky

she will begin to show her waning side

We flow like that, you know

I've been scared of your distance

Only to end up smothered by your presence

I've come to depend on it

I love you so much deeper when your distant

Hate you hard

Over pizza and beer.

Still you are here

Always and forever

Always am, always will be

Stories written

Through Infinity.
