No Measure of Time

No measure of time would be enough For my heart to love you.

No Measure of Time

No measure of time would be enough
For my heart to love you.

Not lifetimes stacked like falling stars,
Not centuries carved in stone,
Not the slow turning of galaxies
With us beneath them, growing old.

If the clock forgot its ticking
And the sun refused to rise,
I would still be here—
Counting forever in your eyes.

Give me years, I’ll ask for more.
Give me always, I’ll outgrow it.
Because loving you
Is not something time can hold—
It spills past minutes,
Past endings,
Past the edges of the world.

No measure of time would be enough…
But I would spend every second
Trying.
