~~~✿~~~✿~~~✿~~~✿~~~✿~~~✿~~~ My first love, so soft and steady When did you become so frail Since the veil I lifted from your morning face? When did that constant heart of yours Wane and flicker in the dale Your cheek pale as a brush of garter lace That pocket watch I forged with love To last a lifetime give it here Though I fear to play at God, I need more time Marilyn, drink your tea and sleep Worry not what I do with fire, with brass This will pass pumping cogs in motion all a-chime Now Let me rest my head upon your chest Listen intent to the rhythm Of you still here with me I cannot hold fate off forever but Hold me dear, at least a little longer Before you go. tick. tock. .•*•♪ღ♪••.¸¸¸.•¨(¯'’•.¸(♥)¸.• ’´¯)¨•.¸¸¸.••♪ღ♪•*•.
