i lied in bed next to her, as her life <br />drained from her body <br /> she was not wishing me goodbye <br />but was welcoming me home. <br /> <br />home into her heart, where i was <br />such a big part. <br />we shared hopes, dreams, memories <br />and joys beyond compare. <br />for alongside me she was always there. <br /> <br />together we smelled the roses <br />and looked up to the skies <br />seeing clouds forming shapes <br />and asking ourselves why? <br /> <br />a letter, a note, little things you wrote <br />a smile, a laughter, little things we did after. <br /> <br />i feel the warmth of your love <br />filling my every being <br /> touching my soul <br />and giving me meaning. <br /> <br />now i know just what you meant <br />that we would never part. <br />for the truest gift in life is love <br />which stays within the heart.<br /><br />louis rams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/welcome-home-16/
