Make It Last
I’ve loved hard and I’ve loved fast.
Until the end my love would last.
But, when I fall it’s always hard.
It always leaves me hurting & scarred.
Yet, I’m willing to try again.
If successful, your love I’ll win.
It will be like vitamin E to my scars.
I will take you to the stars.
I won’t think about hurts from the past.
All thought will be to make this love last.
To enjoy your pleasure until the end
is the ultimate, my lover. My friend.
You mean all the world to me.
This could last till eternity.
In a fantasy world we’d never part.
You will always have my heart.
I could travel the universe with you.
Exploring each thing as if it were new.
Remembering each & every word you said.
As we snuggled deep within our bed.
Such exhilaration is only dreamed.
Till your love becomes the extreme.
What I do with you no other will do.
We’ll do things not learned in school.
We will ride the rainbows everywhere.
Searching for gold that isn’t there.
Because the gold we already have.
Our love for each other, and am I glad!!—–R. W. Johnson—–(2014)
