This is a line from an 8th century Japanese poem "My longing has no time when it ceases."
What does it mean? Thanks.

It might mean "My longing never stops" or "There is no time limit to my longing".
 
I imagine that the person feels this longing all the time- they never get any respite from the emotion.
