Her chair by the grandfather clock
Creaked with ticking and tocking - a moment awaits
She grips her hands softly
Her furrowed brow creased and squinted a moments memory
The pillows of green lounged and her lover caressed her golden locks
1964
In memories of black and white his arms carried her
She carried him with her
In plushness, her cheeks puffed, her lips puckered
Her blue eyes gleaming vivaciously
As the waving goldness of yellow and orange waved back and forth
Leaning their backs towards the eye of the sun
The couple gleefully, held on to one another
Hours turned over into days - passing by time
They gripped tight on to eachother.
Moving in they moon danced to the stars
Sleeping in their hammock
Yet she felt him loosen with ease
The flower by their sink rotten and cumbled into oblivion
She cried for days yet they held on to each other
The mail man comes early today.....
She heard him cry
The foreboding of death crawled into their home, unexpectedly
The grim fate had him pulled him away
Cut loose and shield our touches - his departure to the battlefield
His flights leaves and time is the hourglass
She recalls the night of his departure vividly
6:34 - Fighting
6:41 - Screaming
6:45 - All of the kitchen ware is shattered
6:53 - Him gluing the parts together
7:00 - Making love
7:39 - Him walking down the street waving
7:45 pm - Lights out
Current Day
Every day sitting
Lights out
Sipping white wine in a tea cup - awaiting a knock
The slow creak of her door opens
Opens ever so slightly, yet she sees a tall shadow
She steps up, puts her cup down and sees someone
