The autumn sun catches on the golden382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq03wQCu1N0
strands of her hair, and my heart382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyz9316f4v
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3PD16eyix
of summer foliage, and I break382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMZPPSPKEC
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdJe07Bc1V
on my arm, and I try to regain382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETOg8a4Aex
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaEUHbcTR3
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplGr52KkFK
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRNAPXXTh3
is one more day." She always tells382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhgeKhlEMa
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc31WghohxX
and yet we find ourselves 382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfocMHUUJB
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbX5dFqLbKt
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRN3lle9Xxx
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXYya1ixLU
"just one more day" -- and I wonder382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrWpFf0yu8
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9bbVcp1et
is colder than death -- and I wonder382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P1NuEa9fi
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XmWu87Fgl
but I know time has finally 382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUErl641YOO
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1e7Cjnal1e
and we lay down in the heap382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElm2TMdcNc
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSMn5LTqDB
she tells me, and I die just a little382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYXp5tnMft
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBl15NysGn
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtST87Ifgd
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkzWwVxBm7
Forevermore.
