I have kissed your lips
Too often in my dreams,
Felt your hips against mine,
Heard you call your name for me
While the dark nestles into me.
Now I want to look up,
Now I want to breath,
Stretch for the night air
And for the stars above me.
Now I want to leave your
Muscle memory corpse behind,
Kiss your pale cheek goodbye
And wish you well;
Indeed, I wish your mind peace
And your heart healing.
I wish you well.
