What's With The Shoes?

One step.

One moment.

One heartbeat at a time.

Four hundred three months

I'll wait for you.

No matter how long it takes.

I'll wait for you, forever.

All we have is dead.
As I am dead.
Marry another.

- - - -

I write it only for myself. And so I will hide it away along with all the things left unsaid and undone between us.

- - - -

It is hard to tell of happiness.
Time
goes
by
and we feel
safe
too soon.

Four hundred and three months.
Four hundred and three marks
Four hundred and three words
Four hundred and three
Shadows on a wall.
