The autumn sun catches on the golden294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAokt9G2yi8
strands of her hair, and my heart294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYakv7PjPp
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHa7VFdBfQZ
of summer foliage, and I break294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXRIxTo8Sd
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn55qbh1h1p
on my arm, and I try to regain294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAztkOLMT5
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYn7lsHnzQX
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDKgKSFgqk
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDcppvgO36
is one more day." She always tells294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyWYja86BL
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVlCgnwirS
and yet we find ourselves 294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3cJKW9YJ6
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD3il60fIN
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBWivhpQMW
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UQOL3egWu
"just one more day" -- and I wonder294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSb32yVdOf
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLrTh0xtht
is colder than death -- and I wonder294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lWWx3q4ES
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs5etX1Uke
but I know time has finally 294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlVj1wcLYS
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeT6yici24
and we lay down in the heap294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq8RUrmo87
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzCcvGsGBl
she tells me, and I die just a little294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO5ogTd0TM
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckjUTIqTdp
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCpmFtGD46
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.294Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSr9RynX54
Forevermore.
