• I woke that night wrapped in his arms
    I could feel him
    Smell him
    It had to be real
    I reached for him and touched his face
    stroked it
    held it
    I couldn't be dreaming
    He opened his eyes
    Those bright
    crystal eyes
    He smiled at me
    That sweet
    crooked smile
    He uttered those words
    I love you
    goodbye
    and his spirit left me
    I broke
    I cried
