Love

Love is asking me to stay till one
Before a five hour drive
And love is deciding that’s not right
And staying till three instead

Love is taking time out of your day
Just to look extra gorgeous for me
And love is telling you how pretty you are
First thing every morning

Love is those pouty eyes you give me
When you want a kiss
And love is always kissing you
Even when your eyes are shut

Love is always being there
No matter the distance apart
And love is obliterating the space between
So I can hold you close and tight

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

And love, it seems, is all we need
To skip across the stars
Like two small stones across a pond
All of time is ours
