4 years on Remembrance Day

with his breath
i move
and move
towards him
in a sweeping motion
across the floor
so quick
and for all time

and with a look
i am cemented in place
and feverish
and content
and sure
of the choice I made

with a touch
i see our childrens eyes
in you
and sudder at the
thought of all time
for now
for long

and with a word
i am his alone
and see the mountains
we've conquered
and see the horizon
of what's to come
and I know
I know
