Feeling your hair.
Caressing your face.
soothing your soul
trying to ~comprehend
What you felt
as you came and went.
I don't know
what chemicals
coursed threw your veins
Either way
you are as beautiful
and peaceful.
I hated thinking of the pain
you barely spoke of
I almost cried.
I definitely loved you.
It would all be okay
even though I had no clue.
I stared down
wished, lived
in that moment
longer than the bounds
of time would allow.
I loved that
you needed me.
I had the deepest
passionate connection
with you
and you didn't even know
and I doubt you remember.
