Her Last Words To Me.

Caress me gently with sweet thought Within that familiar spirit so foreign to me Where the once moments feign dormancy Lingering inside a clenching of time Meet my eyes lost somewhere in slumber Remember more of me than the girl I once was Grasp to the moment of our once finality And feel the finite seams of me as they fray apart Breathe of my presence as you carry me Flowing on winds awash with scents of yesterday Recalling the freedom of open flight Lost skyward somewhere without shame You have loved me pensively all your days As the essence of our innocence rack your innards No matter how hard you try to forget When the music plays…you will remember me

This was haunting, mystical like an old romance movie. I can think of a few this would fit. Have a great day, Charlie. Vince
