As Addonizio is prolific in form poems, I thought I'd try again at the love sonnet. Not nearly as juicy, but what can I say...I'm just a big softie...
Just One More Time
It's one more time that I get to kiss you.
One more time to count all of your freckles.
One more time to wake up and remember
that your nose is incredibly special.
One more time watching you walk down the hall.
Just one more time to be thinking in twos.
One more time whispering nothing at all,
except I love you, I love you, I do.
Each time you climb out of bed or each time
doors close behind you as a chance to say
Whoever you are, please give me a sign,
blessed on my lips, just one more time today.
Because no matter how long we are one
I'll have one more time on the tip of my tongue.
