Sonnet 97 – Obsession

I would have thought I would think more of you
with more time on my hands.  That doesn’t seem
to be the case, though.  In fact, I spend no
more time than I did before.  Just one theme

frames my dreams – some would call that obsession,
would think my priorities wrong.  I don’t
agree.  If you consume my attention,
it’s because I choose to let you.  I won’t

feel regret for investing every
possible instant with thoughts of you.  Your
love is precious beyond measure to me.
I will live in a way that makes you sure

I only love you right now...and now…and
now.  I’ll remain yours until all nows end.
