The autumn sun catches on the golden338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5c6ulmA7wP
strands of her hair, and my heart338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcdJv5V8Ox
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eEeLftDEG
of summer foliage, and I break338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuhDYLkykA
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0gXOmkuxZ
on my arm, and I try to regain338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdkGY92eoY
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzd5yxd21U
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiK3mwnJDqh
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQWGihNytL
is one more day." She always tells338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8Vd6iDis0
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBUnvwkx74
and yet we find ourselves 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM8MoyyD2y
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2EN7F4hzz
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOjPRvIG77
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLNiEunKNR
"just one more day" -- and I wonder338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQq2w1LeLs
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgeQUvmzRb
is colder than death -- and I wonder338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRBp7npXRp
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitJ5eqAfht
but I know time has finally 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZ0wkuNTPo
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0md3Jxad3n
and we lay down in the heap338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuRdDCHjwb
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStIfWKrrbD
she tells me, and I die just a little338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14kHsVwdFK
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOH5NKNrKSK
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzaGELtbNZ
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.338Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJ1b8cJjV5
Forevermore.
