I like you for tomorrow
for all that you may be in a future that has not come,
for what you may have been yesterday when I was not around,
for your mind that thinks what your mouth may never say,
for those precious special moments that may be spent in your presence when the moon is full,
for the hope you bring in your promises yet to be fulfilled,
for leaving room for imagination to run wild and free,
for the expansive meaning of your words that can hardly be defined by your present actions,
for being careful not to rush what tomorrow may bring
I like you for tomorrow
I hate you for today
