I call for you.
Wispering this self torture.
Streatching my fingers to reach you.
But I can't reach you.

For you are no longer mine.
Sharrah...If only I could hear you breath agian.
Feel your heart again...
If only all this was real.

DAMN THIS TIME!
This ever slipping away fragment of my imagination.
If only,
IT WOULD JUST STAND STILL!

"I can speed it up." He breathed angerly.
Twisting the setting on his pocket watch.
"I can slow it down,
But I JUST CAN'T STOP IT!"

Why can't I touch this glass?
I can see through it to you
but I cannot cross

This is a future I passed
Long ago I fell and knelt
for something I'd lost

Shall we dance?
whispers of candle light
in the fading ...?


"Ah my dearest." He whispered,
Wraping his arms around her from behind.
"Would you like to hear my pulse?
For you already seem to be in tune with me."

Laughing gently,
He pressed his pocket watch to her ear.
"Hear it? It's what I'm made of,
Counting down how much time I have left.

Ah. If only I cold extend what is there."
This is an exchanged poem by myself and my friend Hayven :iconfallen-fires:

Click here [link] to read [Sigh-lence], the prose (story) form of this exchanged poetry.

She wrote the first part, and i loved it so much I was inspired to respond to it. And my response inspired another response. lol. Now, because of this, I was inspired yet again to respond, only this time with an illustration.

I'll upload the illustration of this scene in about 2 weeks. It's been on my mind forever but I just never really had any motivation till now to do it.

<3 you Hayvie!

xD We need to change the name in the poem. Hmm... You need a good name. Not that Rox is a bad name but you need a artist name. xD
It's just odd it see Sharrah's name up there. When it's no longer about her. xD
