a tablet of time
broken-
no one can break the aeons
they move so fast
in a blink.
here the tablet lies in debris
the moments already passed
into eternity
I see the dates
(a day of masquerades?)
I bury myself under the tablet,
into the debris,
fall asleep, with time
I don't need any other lover
Nice Mag. Fitting t the prompt indeed. Love and Light, Sender
