do dried petals rekindle
those memoirs inscribed
in closeted pages
as fingers brushed
amid stolen smiles
eyelids drooping
to musical chimes
they knew it
and felt it
they kissed it
and loved it
time stood still, but not too long
day turned to night, and change of song
good luck and good bye
may the Gods be always on your side
'cause I have failed you in ways more than one
I know no destination, but I run and run
the hourglass mimics my pace
as I race with the turtles
I tried, I tried, more and less
and yet couldn't cross the final hurdles
those pages drowned with tears
now scream out loud at me
will dried petals rekindle
and bloom once again
to weave the perfect dream
yes, you and me
The Magical We
yes, you and me
The Magical We
