They met in a park Hours before dark Speaking silly words through silence Wasting hours As their bodies turned to bone.

Their eyes collided All thoughts subsided Maybe it was merely ignorance Wasting hours As their bodies turned to bone.

They kissed beneath a tree Wiping grass from her knee Basking in their adolescence Wasting hours As their bodies turned to bone.

They made a promise to stay as one A promise that could not be undone Absolutely no sense of ambivalence Wasting hours As their bodies turned to bone.

They raised a family of three In a small house they lived happily Only holding hands could they balance Wasting hours As their bodies turned to bone.

When their children went away Together they would stay Was it just coincidence? Wasting hours As their bodies turn to bone.

He cried when she was gone Leaving the curtains drawn He did not want independence Wasting hours As their bodies turned to bone.

No one found him hanging from a rope No one knew he had lost all hope There was no time for any condolence They were always wasting hours And their bodies turned to bone
