Tears on my Lips

 I sleep in your death bed 

I taste your last kiss on my lips. 

Haunted with apparitions 

of Christmas past. 

I promised you, 

failed no action taken, 

still frozen 

your tears still moist 

on my fingertips. 

No more secret walks on the beach. 

No more hot morning coffee. 

Your ashes look down on me, 

they never put your ring with you 

it rests on top. 

I can only remember 

it resting on your finger. 

There was so much more 

that was left unfinished. 

Like echoes in an empty room 

it fills my head 

all the words I failed to say, 

each time I wasn’t their to hold you. 

I learned how to live with loss 

but you were just to much.
