I saw him for the last time today,

Teary-eyed, we caught ourselves in a hurried embrace,

He was leaving me,

Anger should have rushed through my veins,

Even then, I couldn't help but feel struck,

By the warmth of his touch, as it filled my heart with mixed sorrow,

Through his hooded eyes, I saw the fear he was trying to hide,

I burst into a mournful howl,

Could I feel anything but pain,

As I saw him take his last breath,

I saw him for the very last time.
