Love Is A Moment


 

She awoke to hear him bid good morning

She slept to hear him say good night

But as the tide rolled in and washed him away

She faded into the darkness today

And time it screeched and cried

Her hands on her ears

She paused for a moment

She awoke to find the silence

She slept to find the silence

And she died a death so violent

That night she slept alone
