Such sweet embrace as this
never have I felt.
For once I feel as if I could be perfect
just for now,
In this moment.
Please kiss me
once
here where it's light.
Promise me you won't forget
this
or me,
Promise you'll love me
forever you'll be with me
in spirit if not flesh.
The light
is diminishing
so quickly.
Hold my hand,
dear angel of mine,
Hold it tightly
for I fear I am falling.
Forgive me,
my sins against you
as numerous as they are painful.
Remember me as I was
in youth,
before the world caught me up
and stole the man you loved.
I love you,
now and forever.
