The one who always listened,
Never answered back
Soft body I clung to in hours of need
Tears soaked up with his warmth
Showed how to love
How to care
The spark of an obsession
An obsession fuelled by his example
Snatched away after so little time
To live elsewhere, the place matters not
It was not with me
When I wanted you, I fell into nothing
You helped your first master see
When all was dark for him
Gave the freedom no one else could
Then came to us
When your body was giving out
As you gave up the ghost I was somewhere else
Against my will
I would have given anything to be there
Hold you till the veil dissolved
And you were gone
I’ve never forgotten you, I never could
My time with you was precious
I give these words to you
As you play endlessly in Heaven
Wait for me?
For the memory of Kes
