A Kiss Too Late

Regretably the moment passed, For one last kiss, the chance expired. Invisibly your time amassed, To go beyond all things desired. Too late I hear those mocking words; Your opportunity has gone! Such dreams now seemingly absurd, Trapped within one haunting song. If I could have that day once more instead of waving hands would show, one long embrace with you explore, then you could leave and I might go. No, this was not just one more death that parted me from every breath, For your soul so cruelly apprehended, left behind the long tormented. Neil Graham Marsden
