Long Enough
Is a day long enough to see?
Is this a time I want to repeat?
Smiles shared and a pair of souls might dare
To carry on in this thrilled jubilee
Is a month long enough to know?
I thought these doubts left long ago
They crept out the back door of my anxious mind when I kissed you first
Now my excited heart is beating to burst
Is a year long enough to wonder?
Don't want to ask *where is this going?*
The path for us has already been etched out in my eye
It's with a starlit twinkle and contented sigh
That I can look and spot you at the end of my days
Is one life long enough?
Oh if I could only have a few more
One perhaps to clear up the dust from the rooms in the tombs of my past mistakes
Another one to delete the pain of the six erroneous heartbreaks
I'd take a third helping in which I'd meet you sooner
Ah, that's a cliched line, I should've clocked that but the yearning mind is slower than the weeping tide.
Even still, I'd sit in the last
And cherish all that I have
Appreciating that whatever and whenever
I was thinking of you in love
That everything and all of this
was indeed long enough
