They met in the April,
And fell deeply in love,
Their paths came together,
As two became one.
The brush of his lips,
Woke a desire deep within her,
The touch of his hand,
On her breast.
He was gentle and tender,
Made love with a passion,
Their innocence given,
To each other forever.
She murmured I love you,
He whispered me too,
Forever my sweet,
Til death takes us.
Years passed by so quickly,
Love filled every day,
They grew old together,
Each moment a pleasure.
He left her one Autumn,
And her life lost its shine,
Her thoughts always with him,
The pain overwhelming.
Her mind wandered back,
To their first night together,
His sweetest of kisses,
She could taste on her lips.
She awoke in the darkness,
To find but a dream,
Pillows damp with her tears,
As she mourned him.
His picture next to her,
The love of her life,
She looked tenderly on,
And then closed her tired eyes.
His voice but a whisper,
Come with me my love,
You are ready to leave,
And I‘ve missed you.
A lifetime of love,
He patiently waited,
She walked to him quickly,
A smile in her eyes.
The brush of his lips,
Touched an ache deep within her,
My darling, she whispered,
I’m home now my love.
