You Did Not Come
And seconds stalled, sowing
the sun
Left by the lure of your presence that day
There that my thoughts stopped crashing your touch
Then not even the sea could wash it away
Did you not know that your light meant so much
Saddened I, when as the moment confessed
It was done
You did not come
You love not only me
And love alone demands eternity
I know it and knew it. But unto the shore
of safety secured from movement we had
Was it not worth a little hour or more
Possibility lost, but I now understand
You needed something I could not be
You love not only me
Inspired/Imitation by "A Broken Appointment", Thomas Hardy
