he sat in the chair
beside her bed
gently holding her hand
she stared at a face
withered fingers
could not trace
as he whispered
I Am Your Man
he sat by her
as she dreamed
he held her
as she screamed
he bathed her sweated brow
repeating his sacred vow
I loved you at first sight
Even though I didn't
get it right, but even now
as the sun sets, I'll get it
right now
She heard his words
riding the glittering rainbow
of Pain
she knew the same
she had given the same vow
to him long ago
she knew in the now
it was time to let go
Her last words to him
wrapped in delight
and delivered on a first kiss
She said to him
if you remember nothing,
remember this...
*I loved you in darkness
I loved you deep
I loved you in sorrow
in happiness my heart keeps
your soul, which I shall borrow
but to my shame
I'll keep it until tomorrow
