The autumn sun catches on the golden263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaDFd7m5uT
strands of her hair, and my heart263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWrrZvRrOl
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BjGmJkg3k
of summer foliage, and I break263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QOauRmUwS
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySkOgBQSRv
on my arm, and I try to regain263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GYLpDMU4G
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VdSbXL2cY
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvU4ORvsG6y
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GbqO5Xa2g
is one more day." She always tells263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlU6gPBtMt
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuRaXruJQ3
and yet we find ourselves 263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9pXmJWTx4
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaMSdyL3J7
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpexDzgWnN
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyrZgbgGjl
"just one more day" -- and I wonder263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbux5yCnrKH
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRBxrikQN9
is colder than death -- and I wonder263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6scXMm890t
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdKeP3kUgq
but I know time has finally 263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOciT2NmqGQ
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiQKIqtSTv
and we lay down in the heap263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2rsZtTOl3
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTpi3KwlFh
she tells me, and I die just a little263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuWhp7sdoN
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqyGk3Wl8j
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwA3VjWtXS
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.263Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYmJiui47z
Forevermore.
