My Last Kiss

My Last Kiss

Here I am! Lying down calm and serene, without a care

While you gently caressed my forehead

And ran your fingers through my curly hair


Memories flashing before your eyes

You took a deep breath and gazed at my charming face

I saw what you saw, what we so dearly prized


Our beautiful little nest, its fragrance

The scent of our love that healed our souls

Laughter of our little son, our intoxication


The meals that we enjoyed cooking together

Hot soups on dull wintry evenings

And the long drives in magical weather


Stepping over scattered toys on the way to our bed

Lulled into sweet nights with stories, jokes and cuddles

Feeling your gentle stroke on my weary head


Lazy Sunday mornings, inseparable like a magnet

When a streak of sunlight sneaked in

To find a cozy corner and curl up in our blanket


You held on to me like roots on the earth

Undefeated by the storms

You did not come this far, only to be stranded on the sands


I feel your parched lips on my forehead; me, a mortal trash

As you bid me goodbye

Before I was reduced to a mere fistful of ash


I can see your arid pair of eyes lost in a threatening future

My beloved, swim across the oceans of hypocrisies dripping from numerous lips

You did not get here to be petrified by the waters


I shall meet our Maker today and seek justice,

To send you sincere helping hands, albeit a few

Good bye my dear, my love shall guard you forever

May you find solace in another
