Was there a time
you were not here
with me
Looking back
I can not see
All there was is now
Time our only enemy
The clock counts down
Days rush by
Each moment felt
A touch, a whisper
Are more special now
Years pass quickly
Faster as we both age
Can we please slow down
Memories will fade
Even now some slip
Quietly away each day
Fix your gentle
Touch upon my body
Face and all over my soul
Rolling over it’s you
I see each morn
You smile into my eyes
Will that smile falter
One day if you see
The cracks left on me
Your promises I once
Eschewed, I now need
With you, I am home
Your love allows me
To be truly happy
My soul can roam free
In your arms I find
A safe place to rest
To my flaws you are blind
Remember this even if
One day you can’t
Without you, I am just half
Never truly quite whole
