Can We Have One More Day?

I seek love in vain.

Do you think we can have one more chance?
You make your way to bed with a breakfast plate,
I memorize every line of your face not to forget,
The coffee smell hovers around the room when we dance.

Do you think we can walk alongside Moda?
You tell a joyful story with your dancing hands,
I laugh harder as you dwell longer in my eyes,
The children’s laughter echoes when we read Lolita.

The days have long passed.
We consumed them as we approach our blast.
‘One more day’ is a sweet nothing that won’t last.
We’ve grown apart, and nothing is left from us —

I seek love in vain,
For there is no falling tears nor rain.
