On Loan From The Universe Poem by Maya Reid

The next time you are upset with him
And you think he doesn’t really love you
Because if he did, he’d remember
To thaw the chicken wings or call you back
You need to remember
That he really isn’t yours
He doesn’t truly belong to you
He’s on loan from the universe
And he could be snatched back at any time.

So make the most of each tender moment
And know that he is a gift that’s not yours to keep
And realize that even the slightest thing has significance
And be grateful for the time you spend in the safe haven of his arms
For he is simply on loan from the universe
As are you
And either of the two could be snatched back at any time.
