You are dying as I breathe,
losing ground with each minute.
I wait, helpless,
listening to your slowing heartbeat
in my baffled mind.

I am here,
alone with my thoughts.
While you lay in a hospital bed,
surrounded by strangers.
What do they know of us?

Promises we made,
hearts and arms entwined.
Once upon a time,
we wrote a storybook.
and love was ours.

Happy days and blissful years,
we brought babies into our world.
Dreams and hopes,
soft whispers and making love,
into the night we traveled.

Memories are all I have
from the days of you and me.
God called your name first
and so, someday, we'll  meet again
when my heart stops to beat.
