When a love is as infinite

as ours, there is an undeniable passion.

It will bring tears to our eyes as we cry,

and tears of happiness when we laugh.

You brought me all the hope

I could wish for and the sun.

You gifted me with our beautiful son,

who I will love for infinite

amounts of time. Until all the hope

has left me, and I’m left without any passion.

That is when I shall no longer laugh,

but continue to only cry.

For now though, the thought of cries

is unnecessary. I still have my son

who continues to laugh

and tells me he loves me to infinity

and beyond. And then there’s the passion

I have for you, and once again I hope.

Why is it that people begin to hope

as soon as they find they are crying?

I begin to feel empty and no longer passionate

about the man who gave me my son.

What was once described as infinite

is gone. And all I can do is laugh.

It is not a joy filled with laugh.

It’s hysterical and filled with fear and hope.

I begin to see there is no such thing as infinite

amounts of time. Placing the cries

that stream down my and my son’s

face. Gone is the passion.

Everything has a timeline, even the passion

for the one who made me laugh.

No longer is he able to give me the sun

and he begins to take away the hope

as well. My prayers turn to cries,

as I pray that I can be strong to love my son for infinity.

He to away the sun, and all of my passion.

There is no such thing as infinite, and gone is the laughter.

Left has the hope, and all that echoes in the house are the cries.
