The years pass by uncounted
but the minutes I know by name
each second since I’ve loved you
no measurement is the same

The time it took to make a star
means naught to me you see
for in that star I find the love
that I wish you had for me

We’ve subdued the jungle beasts
but my heart will not be tamed
I’ll not hold back a nanosecond
and thus said, I feel ashamed

This love took not a moment
to find a home within my heart
I do not know when it will end
nor am I sure when it did start

The clock held within my heart
doesn’t count time in normal space
it’s measured in the times I’m held
within your loving embrace

Can relate a bit to this one.  Time kind of blurs...pleasantly.

This love took not a moment
to find a home within my heart
I do not know when it will end
nor am I sure when it did start

-------------------------------

I know the date my love began,
Could probably guess the minute
But no longer can I imagine life
My love, without you in it.
So I suspect both love and life
Will end simultaneously...
The time when air doesn't enter my lungs
Is when this love will cease to be.

You sparked a snoozing muse, PDV... hope you don't mind her contribution. *S* This is so very beautiful and tender... and timeless. *S* Into my library it goes!

Suthern found the words I have been looking for.
'Tender and timeless'...that is exactly
what this piece is.
Lovely ... simply lovely...
Enjoyed...Hugs

~Somewhere in my heart I'm always
dancing with you in the summer rain~

I've been timing life the same way. Very nicely put--I could relate.

How do you always seem to do it?  ~ This writes me!  As usual, I love the way you express a longing or hurt.  Excellent writing...
It's a keeper

Take care,

PdV,
I really like how this defines the development and staying power of love. Awesome write. Thanks for the repost.

It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo!
