Communication/Poetry Would you turn away?
Karyn Indursky
If I hugged
you for a moment,
it wouldn't be
enough.
If I hugged
you for a minute,
I'd want more.
If I hugged
you for an hour,
I'd want a day.
If I hugged
you for a day,
I'd want a week.
If I hugged
you for a week,
I'd want a month.
If I hugged
you for a month,
I'd want a year.
If I hugged
you for a year,
I'd want a decade.
If I hugged
you for a decade,
I'd want a century.
If I hugged
you for a century,
I'd want an eternity.
If I hugged
you for an eternity,
I'd be content.
If I hugged
you through it all,
would you turn away?
