Terminus ad Quem
Paint me a sunset
with only the colors of your eyes;
paint me one that will last forever.
Instantaneous beauty, at that magnitude,
can't be captured.
Write sweet words with your favorite pen,
explain how happy I make you.
Optimism is the pessimist's way
of convincing himself he's happy.
Take a walk with me,
your presence is even more striking in the shadows.
You are always one step ahead
and I'm too tired to chase you.
Darling, what troubles your thoughts?
Loving you is a game of solitaire;
I always play alone and I never win,
but it's the only game I know.
Anything else?
Yes-
I don't want to play anymore.
