Requiem for a lover

She looks in your eyes
her world, her future, herself.

She holds you in her arms
the ocean enveloping her.

She sleeps next to you
sharing your warm breath.

She holds your hand and walk
supporting and strengthening her.

She laughs with you
her happiness quadrupled.

She cries with you
each teardrop becoming a pearl.

She makes love to you
shouting your name.

She waits for you to come
All is ready
The table is set
The candles are lit
And she awaits the arrival
of her lover.

Alas, she has no lover!
