Minutes Poem by Lilliana Gomez

It doesn't take years to fall in love
It doesn't take a lifetime either.
I've only known you for a couple of minutes and I already have butterflies in my guy
Funny part is I haven't met you face to face yet. Only on video chat.
I've learned so much about you.
I've been told you were a different, unpleasant person before Military Police in the army.
I love the person I got to meet now.
Hopefully I'll get to me you outside of the military.
Germany seems a billion miles away from where I am at.
New York is always full of activities but it only took minutes to wish I was with you.
It doesnt take more than minutes to meet someone special on video chat.
And it doesnt take years to see you in person.
And it doesn't take a lifetime to fall in love
