I will not put back the clock,
I would not cancel a single pain,
A month, a moment,
A single tear-

Let me not now be pushed over the brink
Of this new twilit world of mine,
Dearly acquired,
Infinitely dear-

Watch life gently pass me by,
Some things are not mine to hold,
Drifting further,
Still so near-

Rainbows held in droplets of time,
Glimmering in the rare sunshine,
For you a moment,
For me a year-
