A trembled thought in hesitant eyes
As yellow siphoned orange
Sun-kissed breath upon your cheek
Thoughts withered and aged
Humble greens crisp under warm light
While words with regret amiss
Though few and far from sight
Settling on a widowed kiss
In seconds intricate and encasing
Your skin aglow in time
A memory forever tracing
The life known of yours and mine
A whisper vague and tempting
On a mind twisted by your relent
A reminder of words untold
An eternity to your lament
Though each second spent by you
Trickled into each sinew
Held in the cusp of your renew
A stranger to my hearts consent
And though I am unwilling
To restrict what time is left
A constant mind seeks your comfort
To be held, a beating chest
No rhythm could ever entrance
Nor bide a budding temptation
But yours my love chooses to enhance
All that there is to creation
And so I ask that you leave me be
Let this memory survive
Happily I will live
In a world by your mind
A trembled thought in hesitant eyes
As yellow siphoned orange
All that is left of this life
A fragment of our story
As yellow siphoned orange
