Stand Still

by Aki   Sep 2, 2007


A string of beads
lost in a shallow pool.
Can you find them.
Tugging them
from the string,
one by one
falling.
Falling to be lost
forever beneath
the waters of the
no longer shallow
Pool...

I once could swim,
all I please.
No longer can I,
nor may I
do much else.
forever shall I be so,
so cold,
but not heartless.
I loved him
and now I join him.
At the clock
all is well...
No more,
not another second
of time slips by.
It all stand
as perfectly still
to the second
it happened...
