My Beloved

As my hand falls away from my beloved,
death wraps around my heart stealing my last breath.
Darkness around me bring me to the calm,
what I've been searching for all these years.
The calm engulfs me in its deadly loneliness,
causing me to think of you.
Where you are.
If I will be with you soon.
Memories flash all around me but when warmth takes me in,
I forget all of it and focus on what this feeling is.
It's warm;safe.
I look up to find that smile laying upon your face.
If my heart was still beating it would be flying out of my chest.
My lips try to mimic you smile but I could never get it just right.
Your hand falls upon my cheek,
so I close my eyes.
As our lips meet in passion,
the darkness disappears and once again we are where we should be.
Under our willow in each others arms.
