Effortlessly

Her touch
as gentle
and easy
as the autumn leaves falling effortlessly
one moment
after another
slowly and carefree
without knowing when and where they will land
begs me to ask
what,
if there is anything,
that I can do to have this time
for forever
because it's not enough
to have just until now

And as
the elegant warmth of her kiss
flows through my soul
as if time's meaning is the here and now
I close my eyes
and hope
wish
and pray
to remember tomorrow
because it is the lifetime of her love
that I live for
