We have witnessed too many

last breaths,

farewells, tear laden kisses meaning 'I love you',

and 'I wish you could stay,'

bodies entwined like vines in embrace,

one last quick nervous smile,

unsure and bleak,

yet enough give a momentary glimmer,

one last breath of hope,

before the last choked up whsiper of

goodbye.
