Poem: "The Light"

"The Light"

The warmth of sunshine on your bare skin
the way you lie against me
the shape of your smile
the scent of your perfume as it lingers in the air
long after you've gone

The emptiness now
makes my bones ache
and the memories of
unbridled need and passion
ended too soon

Your breath
as the light shines
one final time
and eternity embraces you
like a long lost lover

As I watch silently
my heart breaks
into a million
pretty little fragments.
