Frosty fingers intertwine <br />elaborate lace, peering eyes <br />and what is this I feel inside? <br />what darkness is amiss? <br /> <br />heart so pallid, moon so cold <br />stars extinguished-black as coal <br />and what is this I feel inside <br />what final frigid kiss? <br /> <br />numb in anguish, heart in dread <br />knowing all that's not yet said <br />fragile life hung by a thread <br />spinning, falling bliss <br /> <br />grasping, grabing, holding, dying <br />all that's good slowly dying <br />muffled, anguished quiet crying <br />all for one last heartless kiss<br /><br />Lesley Taylor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-almost-goodbye/
