If All You Need Is Eons, Then I'll Wait Poem by Rose Mary John

Maybe Icarus flew close to you because he thought you were home?
I cannot blame him for thinking that.
In winters I try to find purpose;
But the summers are my home.

You brought me into existence;
That is why you are home,
For in you resides my Damon and Pythias -
What more could fulfil an earthly soul?

Sure, Eros sobbed while Anteros tried to mend me;
Even so, what better place to live through it -
Than yours?
I wish you could let me in for eternity.

If all you need is time to let me in,
Then you should know that I talked to Horae for eons too.
Do confide in her,
She always finds ways to make it work.

I have befriended Athena just for us,
Moving across with Poseidon's help;
So let me in,
And let's be each other's infinity.
