Glimpses of forever.

We found sadness within each other and we embraced it.
We spent our love in little glimpses of forever
until our pockets were empty and time ran out.
Three words overused,
but never meaningless.

They taint the tip of my tongue
and laugh at your absence.
Your skin discolours mine with sadness,
but I will not cry.
You left me to linger within the words you said.
Maybe it’s not for everyone.
We enjoyed our temporary magic.
