The Last Night
I'll hold you tighter tonight
because this could be the last time
that I will awake to find you here
to touch your face and hold you near
I'll stay awake and make the most
of the time you are hear and laying close
your touch, your smell, the warmth of your skin
and hold my doubts deep within
You stir from your slumber
and brush my cheek
but I know your touch is an act of sleep
and that soon your body will follow your mind
and be lost to me, impossible to find
All too soon,
Morning rears it's head
and I am left alone
no one to keep these feelings at bay
the sheets entwine me
but leave me
cold
