The autumn sun catches on the golden268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAetYyjqfVa
strands of her hair, and my heart268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG7BRnVocF
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUPRopxFot
of summer foliage, and I break268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2OV7E8Ow4
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVywL8jhNI
on my arm, and I try to regain268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvdV8QjS2L
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEETHElaB5
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhhOKwgZKy
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡat99PRH4ZL
is one more day." She always tells268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XCuE60v92
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrR4IAXLRfN
and yet we find ourselves 268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2Z7SPghrh
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhXqAQOt1U
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V0J9YsCbS
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbReVNQWIg
"just one more day" -- and I wonder268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHRKIq7T1u
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiHJpGKVS8
is colder than death -- and I wonder268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Kds5ezDkF
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNiHfebP3o
but I know time has finally 268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQCuyEnQvG
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUAktqqotP
and we lay down in the heap268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcLg9g5kah
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxaWoFQwz5
she tells me, and I die just a little268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ183Wh3jWYj
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVbZEdE2a1
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0FwW2xdSq
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTV41rijKt
Forevermore.
