Tell Me

Please tell me
What it is
You’d like to say.

I see your sweet smile,
Yet tears sparkle in your eyes.

Please tell me
What it is
You’d like to say.

Your lips quiver
Yet you hold my hand.

Please tell me
What it is
You’d like to say.

Both of us quiet, staring,
Unable to break the silence.

Please tell me
What it is
You’d like to say.

Don’t look away,
It makes me afraid.

Please tell me
What it is
You’d like to say.

You cup my head in your hands,
“This is it,” you say
“This is the end.”

Whispers of
“I’ll always love you,”
Then one finale kiss…
Goodbye

The End
