It happens in the fall

when the leaves

make a play on these words

when my heart plays along

And

it seems we are all falling

into a memory

Or

into what will be

leaving one question



Will you be there with me …



even briefly?



If you were mine

for even a minute

I would pause all 60

of those seconds

one by one

till the last one


Then I will run

to next autumn

and wait for you

to fall into me again
