I know the beating
Of your heart.
I held it once
Within my hand,
And knew too well
The meaning
Of its restless pulse...
Your dream drenched eyes
That looked in mine
With longing,
Could not hide
The reflection
Hidden in their depths
Of greater things
Than I.
Your hands
Tho' tight they clasped
Within their strength
My own,
Spoke mutely
In their eagerness,
Of a long
And last
Farewell.

This poem is excellent Rex!

In fact, the beginning reminded me of an incident with my printer - regarding a heart operation... But obviously, the poem has greater meaning. Great read!
