Just a little longer, my love.
Hold my hand just a little longer.
Smile at me just a little longer.
Stare at me just a little longer.
Let our kisses linger just a little longer.
Breathe the same air just a little longer.
Cherish me just a little longer.
Permit me to worship you just a little longer.
Allow me to be yours just a little longer.
Because our time severes. We don't have the forever this love deserves. We dont have the slow burn that turns enemies to lovers, we don't have the time.
We don't have the time.
So allow me more while it's ours to allow. Allow me peace in your arms, allow me ecstasy from your touch. Allow me a lifetime of passion, a lifetime of care, a lifetime of love while I'm still here.
Allow me to praise you.
Allow me to build temples in your name, create religions around the way you smile. The way those eyes sparkle. The way your giggle carries.
Allow me more of us.
Because when our time is up, when I have to go, I want the memories of us to be the grand finale to my Midwest show.
I want the tears to be bittersweet, I want the years to be reminiscing, remembering, cherishing.
I want your thumbprint forever engraved on this heart of mine.
I want us. I want us. I want us to remember these moments fondly.
I want us to remember that even if we didn't have long, we LOVED.
I want us to love.
I want us to love every moment we have together, running full force into every headwind, I want us.
Just a little longer, my love.
Please, just a little longer.
I want us, just a little longer.
