A Slender Thread

Time is left to hang
Upon a slender thread
Answers are unspoken
Thoughts left unsaid

It all began
With a stolen kiss
And a fervent touch
Oh how had it come to this

With love unsurmountable
A tryst filled with passion
Disappears in the blink of an eye
With a dispicable action

Passing into the great beyond
Through the twilight of a golden eve
A moment is neglected
Nothing is left to believe

Time is left to hang
Upon a slender thread
I swallow my pride
Returning to an empty bed
