Ephemeral Moments

Spending time with you, joy unbound, Genuine happiness, in you I've found. Before love's whisper, I knew this true, My heart smiled simply being with you. When you asked if memories would remain, A subtle crack, a hint of pain. It felt like you might forget me, Though I wish our bond could continue. A bad habit, letting go is tough, For those I love, it’s never enough. I'm making memories, savoring time, Knowing you'll find love sublime. For now, I'll pretend you're the one, The love of my life, under the sun. I love you, let’s make memories last, As our time together quickly moves past. Help me treasure these fleeting days, In limited time, let’s find our ways. Even if I'm not your final love, May I leave a mark, like a gentle dove. "I once loved this tiny girl," you'll say, "Her love was true, in every way." Even if you don't feel the same, Know my love for you will never wane. I hope you see the depth I feel, This love, so strong, it’s almost surreal. I love you, whether you understand, My heart is yours, always at hand.
