A Few Days More...

A few days more...

Of laughter, of joy... 

Of smiles that dam a tidal wave of tears... 

Of eyes that sparkle to hide a breaking heart... 

Of words that disguise a searing pain... 

Of a love that would slowly choke and die.

 Giving away to... 

A distance hard to bridge... 

A yearning, a pining... 

A longing of the lonely heart... 

A soundless cry of the dying soul... 

The last gasps of a choking heart.
