You took my hand
and led me
into the sky
that first night…

I lay my head
on your shoulder
and my cheek
caught
all your tears.

“Why are you weeping?”
I asked.
And you replied,
“You are my
always
And tomorrow
this place inside
my arms
will be empty.
I want to keep
your hand
in my hand
and your face
touching my face.

I’ve found
my place
in this world.
I’ve found you.
But every moment
we are apart
will be agony.

Forgive me
if I cry
while I smile.
You are the
goodbye
that I never
want to say.

You are all
to me.
You are
my whole sky…”
