One More Time

One more time, I tell myself, just one more her words slither inside me trying to slam our door precisely picked perfectly written and rhymed my tears well up again as if it were the first time Gazing out into the last rays of the setting sun candles lit prayers unanswered alone as one beseeching darkness be dismissed of your duty begging for just one more chance at this beauty A glimpse I swear I saw a glimpse of her A scarlet streak silhouettes across her hair revealing stolen moments from yesteryear hidden behind the guise of days spent apart trying to hold together a fluttering fragile heart One more time I tell myself just one more time our simple love can begin to grow and bud sublime
