I get an afternoon
June 9, 2012
I get an afternoon
4 hours of your time
The clock is ticking
How could I possibly fit all I need
Into a single timeframe?
She gets everything else
Morning and night
And the gaps in your schedules
And your thoughts
And your hugs
And your love
And you
And I get 4 hours
To try and change your mind

"Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Have they not been made such a fool in their squalor?
For they desired a sign and sought for the wise
When the precursor of life was right in front of their eyes" - Wolves at the Gate
