As I Love You Through The Glass
As I love you through the glass
a tiny hand
sweeps across the blanket
reaching out to me.
You lie there in the stillness
of your slumber
clinging to life;
I reach inside to touch you
and
you stir slightly;
I feel a tiny breath like a
feather
caress my fingers
as I love you through
the glass.
One eye opens
easily staring
into mine;
Can you see me?
Can you feel my
presence
as I love you through the glass.
I ache
to hold you;
I await the moment
when you
peacefully rest in my loving arms.
A silent tear rolls
down my face;
I slowly turn to walk away
only
to glance back one more time
as I love you
through the glass.
