I can’t see the stars anymore
But your smile still finds my eyes
The world beyond has closed its door
Yet your gaze is where truth lies
I can’t hear the wind or rain
But still you whisper, I love you
No thunder now, no song, no train
Just your voice still breaking through
I can’t feel the sun’s sweet kiss
But your touch still steadies me
The rest is gone—but none of this,
Could matter more than you to me
I can’t taste the kiwis I adore
But your kiss still lingers sweet
The flavor fades—I crave no more
You’re the end I long to meet
I can’t smell the oleanders bloom
But your scent I could never forget
As senses fade into the gloom
You’re the reason I’m not gone yet
