51 Minutes

talk talk talk-
memories and what ifs
thoughtful silence and the music played on
and what are you thinking?
tick tick tick

one tear, one little tear and he noticed
he brushed it away and held her
where were the words of comfort?
he had none to give her
he had none to give himself
and what are you thinking?
tick tick tick

guilt, fear, fire, need-
all too powerful to ignore
but one will win over the others
do you know what you are getting into?
she is deaf to the warning and closes her eyes
lips, so familiar meet, "so soft"
they have been there before and will be again
her dream, her forever dream
and what are you thinking?
tick tick tick

Great poem. (although I did trip over the line, "but one will one over the others")

It sounds like a lot of things were happening at the same time - beautifully composed here - well done, Youngster.
