The autumn sun catches on the golden253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvnyfJr47X
strands of her hair, and my heart253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHh7S4dNBG
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRlZ0HTQzf
of summer foliage, and I break253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzKz7TvIJ3
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaaUqgKncu
on my arm, and I try to regain253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxXsU4b8gx
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooK8m7Lo3F
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37chMOFcbT
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmRV6Bre14
is one more day." She always tells253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHpLpVecTl
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECdqxJE6Iw
and yet we find ourselves 253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagax3t33d4
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GkoJbH6Dd
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL15Wcdn0FI
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFwnVP7VSb
"just one more day" -- and I wonder253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjrikbi43x
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNRaupepsU
is colder than death -- and I wonder253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUBrDv7xYq
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoykID9oAJe
but I know time has finally 253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm5DfZfvv5
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCA0u94eyl8
and we lay down in the heap253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT25r3wU8FP
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4Q6mUevse
she tells me, and I die just a little253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ohUKWbxEW
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hJSKfc98m
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq8udrpLTt
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.253Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIoJRZp452
Forevermore.
