Must I?
why must time go on if i am unable?
why must love be so cruel yet so sweet?
like the bright hue of a grapefruit,
hiding its bitter flesh
like a forgotten face
nameless to all but the heart.
if i must go on,
then i implore time to stop
for there is enough distance between
what was, and what now will never be,
for the rest of eternity.
