A+ A- |
The hands holding mine
Were the last I would touch
And the only ones I needed to.
I still feel the squeeze on mine
From the last moment,
Still smell their breath.
I still remember….
When I first held these hands,
When they were young,
When I was young.
Tears were on my bedside,
And I begged them not to cry.
Not for me.
