An ending
The last time you loved me
we rolled and swam and tussled
and melted and mixed together
then tied our bodies firmly
like a ribbon adorning its gift
The last time you held me
time hovered above the bed
deciding how to capture
a photograph of two lovers
locked in their closing moments
The last time you kissed me
space disappeared
like a luke-warm shadow
dissolving between
the press of our lips
The last time you touched me
I shivered as the wind
plucked at my jacket
You briefly embraced me
I blinked into the sun
Then walked across the road
The last time you loved me
You told me exactly that
You love me
You. Love. Me.
You still do

The last time you kissed me
