forever. how long is that?
forever is not tomorrow. or next month. or twenty years. or even twenty two.
but it could be. depending on which end of forever you’re looking from.

forever is a word we made up for the span of time we have no numbers for, a word for love we want never to run out of.
forever does not mean i will still be here tomorrow. but it could mean i won’t go away even the day after that.

beloved, do not ask me for forever. i don’t have it and truly, neither do you. do you see how quickly we promise away things that we do not own or have control over?

i give what i can.
ask me for now. it is yours and always will be.
