I Try

May 12, 2015

I try to feel the warm glow that radiates from your lips, 

I try to feel the light in your eyes as you gaze at me, 

I try to feel your gentle touch as you caress my hair, 

I try. 

 

I try to hear your beating heart pressed against my chest, 

I try to hear your breath as you hold me tight, 

I try to hear your whispered farewell as you pull away, 

I try. 

 

I try to tell you I am with you and always will be, 

I try to tell you my love continues though I do not, 

I try to tell you this is not the end for us, 

I try.
