Delicately
Silently
Lovingly
I hold your hand
You lie unmoving
Breathing
Heart beating
Your eyes sometimes flicker
Your waking could be any time
Tenderly
Routinely
Lovingly
I kiss you upon your cheek
I cannot stay much stronger
In the nights as they grow longer
I need to hold you close each day
But by your side I swear to stay
Gripping your delicate hand
Holding on to not just you
Hope is what I am clung to
I get up after what seems like hours
I leave in my wake cherry blossom flowers
I wish you could simply follow me
And escape from your endless sleep
