Poem: How Much Time Is Forever

I am a writer. My passion is poetry. I feel words connect people together and help us to understand the feelings we share.

Poem Summary

How much time us forever is about her hearing him say the word forever. She wonders what this means. Is it a glance between two hearts that last an eternity or a treasure full of memories gathered over a lifetime. Maybe it's both. A keepsake for him to treasure in his heart.

"Now is Forever - Lauren Daigle"

How Much Time Is Forever

Forever...
she heard him say,
but what does it mean?

How much time
is forever?

Is it a fleeting glance
between two moments
which lives in eternity
within two hearts?

Or is it a lifetime
of memories,
a treasure one builds
with each step taken
through his journey
called life?

Or is it both?
a treasure for him
to keep
safe within his heart.

Alice: How long is forever?

White Rabbit: Sometimes, just one second.

— Lewis Carrol
