Never count the minutes,
Always count the seconds.
Let it count.
Let the love be your way.
The closer we are,
The better it is.
I feel your love.
Your aim is toward my heart.
I love you,
You love me.
As it should always be.
Not counting the minutes,
But counting the seconds.
Love should be in every moment of our lives.
It should be our way,
Our thinking
And even our lives.
We love to stay,
Each other breathes,
Looking into each other's eyes,
And never failing to love
Love is beauty,
And your love is my beauty.

Context?
inexcusable; decontextualization undeniable * Thanks for reading! Author's Notes: The great Gerard DiLeo challenged me to write a 5.7.5 format senryu/haiku with just three words. This is my entry? I had two others to choose from too that I might publish at a later date. I have also done a few in the past...because...you know it's not hard enough lol.

Death is a black hole. Think about it. A black hole is the corpse of a star, something once warm and bright, now come to the end of its life cycle. But some will argue that the cycle of life does not end with death. That death is merely another path we must walk once our bodies expire and our souls ascend. In that moment, when the fuel in the star’s chemical tank hits empty and the shiny matte coat explodes into supernova, the mass left behind – the corpse – becomes a black hole. We understand that, around such a vast cadaver, dimensions work a little differently in death to the way we’re used to in life. For example, light cannot escape the pull of a black hole when it hits the point of no return. That’s where it gets its colour. Space itself is contorted by a black hole. That’s where it gets its funny shape. Even time. Time slows right down the closer you get to it. The closer you get to a black hole. The closer you get to death.
