Less than a day ago I was wrapped
In his arms.
The silence of the room nothing
But a peace between us both
That I would dare not break.
I felt an eternity in a moment,
Saw a future play out forever
Into the future,
Stretching out further than
I can reach.
I want to grasp it,
hold it in my sticky hands
Like a greedy child
With a sweet treat.
It slips through my fingers
And I watch it fall.
Crashing into the ground.
