I took your hand and you began to tremble. I imagined you could feel it a surge of emotion rushing from my heart to yours. Love I hope! I hope and pray its love but there is to much fear. This moment, so unlike the thousands we shared, but rightfully ours. Private and tender, a mirror to the cold gray rain outside our window. Your kiss soft and light. The finest silk caressing a cloud. Moist twinkling eyes, deepest green, all knowing, sparkle as we recap our daughters first school play how cute she was with her skirt tucked into the back of her leotards. Beautiful and pale, so much pain. Your smile falters, again and again. A tear, your first for me, released by slowly closing eyes. Your hand stopped trembling. Fighting back the wail climbing my throat I placed my head against your bosom and let the tears flow. I wish I were with you still. Tom Bishop |
