Sudden Death
Sudden Death
By Rick Rucker
Each time we part,
It stills my beating Heart!
It leaves me Crushed,
Around me, the songbirds, their singing Hushed!
Almost more than I can Stand,
Having to release your delicate Hand!
I can’t believe that we live apart,
Though, as always, you live in my Heart!
When I’m Alone,
I need to talk with you, if even by Phone!
If we can’t do that, because of constraints,
Then perhaps by texting, with fewer restraints!
Your Words, whether written, or Heard,
Buoy my Spirit, I hang on each Word!
We are meant to be together,
Captivated, in Love forever,
Like Lazarus, I come back from the Dead,
When I hear your voice, and turn my Head,
To view the most beautiful Creature,
Graced, with every wonderful Feature,
That Nature could bestow,
Simply Everything, from head to toe!
I want to hold you, without a Care,
Unmindful of others, let them all stare!
My Life, which had “gone South,”
You bring back, by mouth-to-mouth!
Together, like this I want to stay,
Kissing you, like this, ‘til my Dying Day!
