Love Poem: Heartbroken, Heartbreaking

Heartbroken, Heartbreaking

Acid, flowing rapidly
a Niagara down my cheeks
brushed away quickly.
The clock on the wall un-moving
reading four fifty- two
stopped there to keep the fall flowing
to keep me from forgetting
since forgeting would hurt more than the memories.

The clock stopped ticking, stopped ticking away,
the ticking stopped, it had to, it sounded so much like...

April 5, 2002, heartbroken, heartbreaking
but faithfully
I will wait for you.
