I knew this time it was just different somehow,
his voice was much softer, that tilt of his brow.
The pain of his heart beat strong as mine,
I tried to refuse to see it ...but I knew the sign.
.
It would be the last time we shall embrace,
it was written in every single line on his face.
I could say nothing as his last teardrop fell,
that moment of silence put me under its spell.
.
As I reached out I completely froze in my tracks,
our forever love had faded into life's cracks.
Many years passed since his voice "So caressing"
whispered to me, You'll always be my blessing.
