The autumn sun catches on the golden244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTZKJ49209
strands of her hair, and my heart244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qOsgbMJ0I
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGaaTG0WoC
of summer foliage, and I break244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs14nigxbjP
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjuGa7p7xl
on my arm, and I try to regain244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dwRKZSXbt
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlPayj0ANc
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgORR3JnDA
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJxRCtuNDA
is one more day." She always tells244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tolPEhfhB
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIy4dvdGkp
and yet we find ourselves 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54L9oqjGzx
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTetvDkwar
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsHXkq992d
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvOlpPKF11
"just one more day" -- and I wonder244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSliibsUn0
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiOeGFbipT
is colder than death -- and I wonder244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxt89tk8RF
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gOGIqv00f
but I know time has finally 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlFxaxiwU6
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNPPKP3kjD
and we lay down in the heap244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2LN0gwbrS
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAbINiBS05
she tells me, and I die just a little244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhGwztKwaD
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJvShHwOaK
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPp73PtNU6s
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58dZwn589Z
Forevermore.
