Time After Time

What a beautiful thought
It was
To hold in my arms
To caress the skull
Smile into the eyes
Everlasting
Yes this moment is mine
I captured it
A rotation of design
How beautiful is this
Oh frame after frame
A bloom I unwind
The image of you came
And as this unfolded
My mind was exposed
A flowering expression
Passing by just as it arose
Thistles out
Grim beauty digressing
There it goes
Becoming in time
A cognitive trove of mine
Where memory petals go
Who will ever know?
