I held you
In my mind
As I do
In my heart
Feeling your
Anguish
As if it were
My own
I imagine
Your head
Resting on
My shoulder
Your hair
A pillow
That frames
A face with
Tears that
Silently slip
From eyes
Dark with hurt
Lips dry and
Raw and
Mind too tired
To care
Whispered words:
I wish my love
Could ease
This pain.
