I, promise
to love you

now
& only now

present Love
only in this the Present

letting it form
into a Future

(slipping into a Past)

building a Now
meant to last

outlast

its frail fragile
promise

the 'now-ness'
is all

and so we
live & love

in now...now

the very
now!

Original Unknown Girl 24 November 2008

A very buddhist philosophy! ! Beautifully captured love poem as yours always are... as if you took a net and swooped all of the delicate butterflies as words and laid them on a page..... HG: -) xx
