45 minutes before my real
new decade starts,
45 minutes before
I turn the music off.
45 minutes before another
dried leaf falls
45 minutes before a new
one sprouts...
there from a branch
of a tree
where all mem'ries engraved
with listed names
of those who come and go
while time passes and flies.
45 minutes...
last 45 minutes of holding on.
45 minutes...
then I'll let go.
Turning the page to a new one.
