Poetry-What I mean when I say forever


What I mean when I say forever

You are mine and I am yours
Even if you live in some far-flung place
When I say I will always love you
I mean it, sugar-pie, forever.

You could live in Timbuktu
Or take canoe breakfast in Bora Bora
You could be one hundred years old
And I’ll still love you, wherever I am.

You could sell me the stars I get for free.
You could be living in the street.
You could be any kind of person in the world
And I would still love everything you are.

Even if it breaks my heart
Even if I sell my soul
If you can still know I love you forever
I’ll do it. Just for you.
