bedsheets.

I lie in your arms, one last time

Clinging to you

To every last second

That passes, too fast

Those threadbare, ridiculous

Resented tears fall

As you whisper love songs

Into my ear, telling me

I'm yours forever

These last few hours imprinted

Into my solitary bedsheets

Time slips away, 

My grasp, only tighter

Limbs entwined

Cradling me, safe and warm

Preparing to carry

A piece of your precious heart

With me, as you take mine

Slowly, back home

I'll see you soon, my love

Our passions last spoken

Through silent glass

And you stutter away, 

Into the night,

And you are gone 

Two lonely lovers

Cast out into an unknown,

Starless sky,

Our futures, waiting

Our souls, waiting

Til our lips meet, smiling

And I'm back in your arms 

Loving you again.
