A faded grasp

Eternal pledges fall,

as fast asleep sets in.

Sinking slows into the deep;

what a perishable, promising heap.

A quick sand mans dream,

coursing through gravity,

pulling at the black hole.

Our dreamy night sky has been taken in.

Backs are turned as the stars counter out.

Beside you,

in your arms,

Our reverie is over.

Simply away.

Holding the unkept,

and kept hoping it would stay.

Simply, away.

Enough taste for a lifetime;

everything,

a flavorful palate,

to squared.

What was new is now pale blue~

faded fools.

Simply....

time to walk

away.
