[30] your name's black printed

36 14 4
                                    

i'm lost between the pages
of a book that has your name on it
and i'm turning the last page
just to see a " the end" gazing at me

the story's ending here
and i'm crying black printed tears
oh dear, our story was too short

please don't leave me here
between the lines that once bore our names
and the paragraphs that hold our love for eternity

i'm not ready to let the pages turn yellow
and the spine get dusty
even though the ink is still fresh
