rolling marbles
like seconds
falling until
the death of day
tonight
as we embrace
no sounds
but the sounds
of your breathing
no words
but the words
of my whispering
the children
we once were
playing with
rolling marbles
like years
passing until
the death of memory
tonight
as we embrace
I see you laughing
beside me
your glittering eyes
and I know
you are the one
