The autumn sun catches on the golden377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf4WwiNz3i
strands of her hair, and my heart377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZItRmg7IwU
breaks a little bit.
She looks at me, eyes the color377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZsvDNmRiI
of summer foliage, and I break377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86yJrcWhCR
even more.
I can feel her touch, like ice377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVr25cs0Sr
on my arm, and I try to regain377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdiquUqqlx
control of my breathing.
Sorrow stains her face, like rain, as she lifts377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SI4K7op1k
her mouth towards me, placing a kiss377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBqozJ2iPd
softly on my cheek.
"I'm sorry," she says. "All I want377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMg1q60X9eV
is one more day." She always tells377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzQSMFOWzj
me this. Just one more day.
But time has never been in our favor,377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDI1ePfKPXr
and yet we find ourselves 377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGk7r113509
trying to evade the inevitable.
"Just one more day."
The autumn leaves fall around us,377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVbaslMUDH
a rainfall of colors, red, orange,377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIz4AJULQzn
yellow. I inhale slowly.
Her breath ghosts across my neck --377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrbNEEBGBp
"just one more day" -- and I wonder377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeSat6rMuO
why it has to be this way.
I cautiously touch her cheek -- her skin377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TANy1l0vO
is colder than death -- and I wonder377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DpOUh6tRC
why we can’t have forever.
One more day isn’t enough any more,377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gkWjDKEXz
but I know time has finally 377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5fQBFVyIY
caught up with us.
She smiles, just a wisp of her lips,377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiHJwJNGXB
and we lay down in the heap377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFspbStg0ue
of colorful autumn foliage.
“Let’s be together again some day,”377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReuTGm5Ppn
she tells me, and I die just a little377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYwnY7DhPT
more inside.
“Promise me,” she says. “that you’ll love377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2z1XM7ZJj
me even when I’m gone.” I tell her that, 377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL7on9O36T
of course, I’ll always love her.
From now until forever.377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIX9AEcLSd
Forevermore.
