Untitled 10/14/17
and when your tears
hit the pillow
and dried,
i noticed that your eyes
would be as clear
as the day we met
to the day we died
your hand felt soft in mine
still silk, as if it those endless
days of labor
never once wore your stride
and your lips
were still a rose red
the color of red i felt
through my whole body as i kissed you
in the parking lot, when we
should of been in class
all those years ago
oh dear, please do not cry
for both of us
i assure you
that we'll live on even through faiths end
whispering old secrets
from the memories we loved together
my dream, as you lay in this
stainless white bed
and enter into the infinite
is for your soul to continue
dancing
in rhythm with your humming tune
oh, my world, please forgive me
for being selfish and wishing you'd stay,
just for one more moment,
but,
because i love you
i must ask
if something is a bit chilly,
and i do know
it's not me.
