Time's All We Got Poem by Caroline S. P. Keller

Hold me tight
Kiss me wildly
I love you…
So much baby

Those words haunt me
As time goes by
I won’t tell myself the truth
Thinking it’s unfair to you

The truth that we’ve lost the spark
That we used to always have
It was great for a while
But then ended up dead

You say you love me
And I say it right back
But you’re actually meaning it
While I’m trying so hard to




Stop using the words “forever”
Cause it scares me to death
You’re freaking me out
And taking away my breath

Slow down boy
There is no rush
You can’t rush love
Or it will turn to dust

Slow down boy
That’s what I said
But will you listen?
Now that’s the real test

I might love you
But then again I might not
Give me time to think
Cause time’s all we got
