Maybe

Maybe there’ll be a moment
when we lie in bed and say
this is all we ever wanted
here, now, today

and maybe, when it’s over,
it will prove enough to last
long into the future
deep into the past

so that maybe, lean years later,
lovers will gaze at us and say
that’s all we ever wanted
here, now, today . . .
