Slipping Away

One day

When she slips away from your palms

Oh so silently,

Without any prior notice,

As if she was a raindrop

Falling from the sky,

Sliding from the top of a skyscraper

To the bottom of a sewage drain

Then sinking to the bottom of the sea.

Would you notice

Her long lost presence

And feel her

Slipping away

With no way to grasps back on

To that hand you still long for

?
