Love and Time

love and time
are two that do not mix
they are the water and oil
of our tragic world
 
because all the hours
spent with your love
can truly never
feel like enough
 
it is merely grasping
onto your eternity
until your knuckles are white
then you must let go
 
and when the heart breaks
from a love lost too soon
this is when time slows
and lets you feel the void
 
so we chase this time
while we feel this love
and hope to never lose it
or feel the clock slow
 
we want these quick hours
with the one we love
because when time flies
 
we know we are lost in one another
