The autumn sun catches on the golden186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGX4tZlnb5e
strands of her hair, and my heart186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQCjpVG0O1
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qOlo7y4sZ
of summer foliage, and I break186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtYfrTXdpa
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRa1ZAXHJR
on my arm, and I try to regain186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtXYzSOnd3
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnHAQVMhOz
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WzO69n6sA
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKVSEDullL
is one more day." She always tells186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLT6A1oiAyf
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPZC730fdR
and yet we find ourselves 186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjhpihEXSH
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulV3MyZtcd
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCodiG4dRh
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvfghXWqVh
"just one more day" -- and I wonder186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4PiV0QwFO
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJZ7Y9b7PV
is colder than death -- and I wonder186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2bBhVJrZH
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6xt3RByRK
but I know time has finally 186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WldT5BPnv
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFv2OptYFS
and we lay down in the heap186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHYImyPUxx
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXNaqtxh63
she tells me, and I die just a little186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lSfsiCKH3
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSJvlwrvcx
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsK82Ix9Rae
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.186Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvBLol3yjv
Forevermore.
