His eyes-
those eyes...
Those horribly sad eyes.
Peered through me
and pierced my aching soul.
His lips moved
but I cannot seem
to remember his words
-just his face.
His longing
to leave
To be anywhere
than here.
His hands
folded neatly
but scratching at themselves
spoke loud enough
despite his muted words
In the darkness
we sat
in the comforting silence
of expecting the loss
that was approaching us
at a rapid, calculated speed.
We were still.
But
We were together.
Together
but
soon to be
vastly apart.
