Planet Earth

I thought that
I could not
love you forever
because I thought
upon Planet Earth
forever was a place
that didn't exist.

And yet with you
I couldn't resist
attempting the
impossible.

And so I will
let my love grow
until you've had
enough of my love
and tell me to go.

And then I will try
to let my love die
and I will try
and try
and try.

very fine!

all of us unabashedly 'incurable Romantics'
just HAVE to believe that somewhere, somehow
words like 'forever' and 'love' can successfully coexist
(as fine 'truth') in the same sentence...and, delimit 'reality'!

applause!!

James - I believe wholeheartedly in a "forever love" but I've a suspicion that it manifests in another form.  However, I also believe that human love is the forerunner of what is to come.  Life is the means for love and love is the means for life - something like that.
