A Moment In Time

Patience is my virtue
Yet it also seems our vice
I could never be made to hurt you
Or become someone you despise

On this day of feeling
Let me say now without doubt
My love is only nurturing
To all who are without

Though I sense the love in our embrace
And I long to hold you close
You must move at your own pace
No matter what I might impose

Your friendship is what I desire
Don't let my feelings confuse you
You as you are is what I admire
Pure men like you there are but a few

So let me be the confessor
Of what my heart can plainly see
If time will bring us closer
It must be what is meant to be
