Did I not think clear
Or for that, did you,
Sudden thoughts excused us
To desperate words.
Neither were two souls ready
To company part
To kiss a last goodbye
On lips that turned cold.
Cold from thoughts of loneliness
Of nights holding scrapes of memories
Distant lines that excuse us
And of meanings that we need.
To ponder futures we wish
Those simple pleasures in life
Of days doing chores and work
The nights private times.
Of your children that I feel
To see your peacefull face
Once more to the dance
To take your hands embrace.

Michael,
       your expression of goodbye is heartfelt and quite visual, as well.
Nicely written.....
