One more day
one more tomorrow
just to remember
yesterday's sorrow

one more laugh
and another cry
take one more
deep breath

give it
one more try

one more step

one back ...
... or ahead?
followed by
one more
that makes two
instead

one more dream
one more fantasy
one more wish
before
one more
bites reality

create an addiction .... share a smile!!

This is a wonderful usage of repetition for power. Fantastic poem.

I would rather have one breath of his hair,
one kiss of his mouth,
one touch of his hand
than an eternity without it.

Craig,  we all experience this balance of
maybes and what is.....our dreams and our
realities....  Like how you have done this.

True enough! Well said, that's how one tends to see things.
Good write!

One more time, I came back to read this one more time, and noticed I hadn't replied the first time. So one more time, I'll say, you write emotional moments so well, they are always believable.
