The autumn sun catches on the golden277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf17x2DCjOI
strands of her hair, and my heart277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnGDxBJXyV
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2nSHKYoVJ
of summer foliage, and I break277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd8cF9Zrfo
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJNo8mIbAU
on my arm, and I try to regain277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAkEJhgDtm
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUdcMgYZ0j
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rPKmrhGmA
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6n2DkYmPs
is one more day." She always tells277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOs9MCetxIf
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3klCgKfzRN
and yet we find ourselves 277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqCdtA3HXS
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hduyKrIf9
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPw7UWZ4wS
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT3Tbg2hwq
"just one more day" -- and I wonder277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQd6XjhBtO
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDu73ZEQEr0
is colder than death -- and I wonder277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpl6g8obvoS
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtrMs8MUCJ
but I know time has finally 277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVKnBmhvvX
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXStz5pLbY
and we lay down in the heap277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvMLzLWeNa
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXABmszXKji
she tells me, and I die just a little277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDckblxrwMw
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUGuuQsPzJ
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TzBha2Mvt
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFDU28WBqC
Forevermore.
