The autumn sun catches on the golden246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8CXCAEuNi
strands of her hair, and my heart246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NkddDWNWZ
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbsZHB0PkM
of summer foliage, and I break246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk5iWglwZr
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlS6iUNfMW5
on my arm, and I try to regain246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl15VgoByv8
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSr9ZifH6i
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqtQUeOJaZ
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTVnGbneGD
is one more day." She always tells246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8BgwSbRZa
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZvhIWluVt
and yet we find ourselves 246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXOBYocpGl
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTwwvrgO3E
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFvt2Jg2eo
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RSZ0uWH6M
"just one more day" -- and I wonder246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWuZdvvYai
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ur2kyjOzU
is colder than death -- and I wonder246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTGcP6pcB3
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGusgi63UNN
but I know time has finally 246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uz6uyP9Ev
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJh53Pt09a5
and we lay down in the heap246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf8JZrVRVo
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLnNctAmBG
she tells me, and I die just a little246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4aVq2jFsu
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyiQoNEUKf
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvv3QoDRl9
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.246Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBximZF3yV5
Forevermore.
