Return

A patient pause gives way
Two hearts fluttering in time
As space between them builds
Their peace slowly dying
A beautifully staged play
But now the page turns
No longer bound as one
The world crashes and burns
All things are ending now
As everything eventually must
Time has come to concede
Return this relationship to dust

Blank Page

Blank Page

The light of your smile

Of faded kisses

Brings memories of long ago days

When time had stopped for just one moment

And only we two lived

The air was heavy with potential

I breathed in time with you

Suddenly with a snap

All was gone

Left with a memory

Like a faded photograph

Slowly leaking ink

One day all it will be

Is a blank page
