I found your body resting
A peace of mind formed on your face
You were wearing the same skin
But of you, there was not a trace
I grieve
For you
Your hands lay at your sides
And as I took them up within my own
The limpness that I met
Rattled my breast, chilled to the bone
I grieve
For you
Though I spoke your name
Softly at first, then with determination
No one seemed at home
To answer my pleads, then realization
I grieve
For you
I knelt by your side for long
Your lips were warm only hours ago
I stroke your pale cheek, thinking
It looks as if you fell asleep in snow
I grieve
For you
