Love Poem: Perfection of the Past

Perfection of the Past

Father and daughter
Sitting together
All their worries
Light as a feather

Making a chain
For Christmas Day
That counts the days that remain

Everything seems as it’s perfect
Because for that amount of time
Everything is perfect
For neither of them realize
There isn’t much time 
Till the perfection dies

They’re so naive 
Unknowing 
That what they have
Will be destroyed

Neither know
What heartbreak awaits
What chaos and pain is yet to come
For that may be their last moment
Together in perfection
