More time won't change a thing

More time won't change a thing,

I am writing this

as you make your way through the night towards me.

I will wait patiently,

thinking of the years to come.

And a new order will shape the rest of our lives.

Everything will be different.

Everything will be the same

For so long,

I have attracted certains forces that shaped my life.

And I let them do their work.

Sometimes they tear through me like a hurricane.

And somtimes they simply shift the ground underneath me,

so that I stand on different earth,

and something, or someone,

has been swallowed up.

And yet I always survive.

So whatever happens between us,

I know that you, too, will survive.

For that is what we have learned to do.

And you will have me.

Endlessly.

Everything, always.
