What was that one
poem you always
recited to yourself
at night when
our days became shorter.

"It's sad how things are most beautiful when they're ending.

Flowers when they're wilting, the leaves in Autumn, the sun when its setting.

Your smile when it's fading."

I don't know who
wrote this poem
or where you had
gotten it from,
however, the one
thing I know is
that you had known
long before that
time was running
out for the both
of us so you made
our final days
the best one's.

I remember you
laughing a bit more,
smiling a little fuller,
and your eyes
God damn it they
shined brighter
than the stars even
because you had
known what
was about to come.

And me well I was
clueless as a hobo
on a donkey
looking for water.
