Just pause this heart and soul, less time that cared

A fleeting kiss and hollowed days since then

So close we stepped but halt to talk again

You stomped away what once we could have shared

Deep breaths of sight of you can not compare

The days when I would write of you in pen

You would smile and soak those words within

Yet what came thereof, I was not prepared

With man on arm whom I would call a friend

A time when you would offer nothing more

No voice or written word you would extend

Of days when I would ask for one day more

Just time with my own mind I was condemned

A day with you, I never had before
