To love for a day

it is twelve and I'm scared you don't love me anymore 

it is one am and you kiss me goodnight intertwining all of what we are into each other

it is two am and I am dreaming about you

it is three pm and I wake up to the beautiful stillness of your face as you pull me closer

it is four pm and I am asleep soundly with no thought of you in my mind

it is five am and I roll over to hold you as you snore softly

it is six am and I feel you awaken slowly

it is seven am and I hear your legs walking tiredly to the kitchen to get a glass of water

it is eight am and you gently poke at my face and play with my hair until my eyes open

it is nine am and you join me in the shower, washing each other 

it is ten am and my heart doesn't burn I tell my mind to quiet down thinking of you

it is eleven am and I tell him I love him with every part of me
