04/25 Time Stood Still

(Read More...)

12.55

Your last breath
My first tear
I look upon the clock 12.55
Months of pain vanished
A peaceful look on your face
Memories of childhood flood
All things unsaid surfaced
What were our last words?
How do I tell the others?
The times we laughed together
Holding my hand in difficult times
I stroke your face
I kiss your cold forehead
I hold your hand
I say goodbye
I look upon the clock 12.55
The moment time stood still
