As the stars steal
The tender softness
Of your kiss
And place it upon
My brow
I know
I’m not alone
Your presence lingers
To embrace
And wipe away
The tears
And drown out
The fears
The darkness brings
Though sleep
Doesn’t come
And I must await
The morning light
For a touch of warmth
To grace my skin
Though taken
From your touch
It isn’t the same
Heaven is further away
Than it has ever been
And though I must
Walk alone
With woken dreams
Of yesterdays
Perfect smiles
Perfect love
And moonbeams dancing
Across your vacant pillow
I can breathe again
Because
Forever etched
Into my heart
Is you.
