I hope you all enjoy and will let me know what you think. Thanks for reading! Gillian__@hotmail.com One More Day Candlelight floods my room and is interwoven with music. The room smells of a mixture of strawberry and mountain spring making an interesting combination. The raindrops sliding down my window look like silver silk in a spider's web. There is no spider to tangle them together, just my confused thoughts. The candles flicker from the breeze filling my room, making shadows dance across the ceiling. I close my eyes and a picture of us together fills my vision. It continues to play like a movie, all the time we had together. All your crazy questions and all my sane answers. Where are you? Why aren't you here with me? My life has lost its light, for you are not here to guide me. Will I ever find you my star? I listen as a song fills my ear. "Last night I had a crazy dream. A wish was granted just for me, it could be for anything. No, I didn't ask for money, or a mansion in Malibu, I simply wished for one more day with you." My breath hitches and tears gather in my eyes. "One more day, one more time, one more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied. But then again, I know what it would do, Leave me wishing still for one more day with you." Tears stream down my face, the force of those words shooting an arrow to my heart. "First thing I'd do is pray for time to crawl, I'd unplug the telephone, keep the tv off. I'd hold you every second, say a million "I love you's" That's what I would do, with one more day with you." As the chorus plays again I sing with the words, wishing with every breath that you could hear them from my lips. "One more day, one more time, one more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied. But then again, I know what it would do, leave me wishing still for one more day with you." I wipe my tears away and hold your photograph in my hands. Your beautiful face stares up at me from behind the glass. "If only we had one more day." I caress the frame blowing out the candles and let the darkness swallow my tears.
