Our last breath

We stood there together

Her hands in mine

My heart in hers

She smelt of cherries

Or maybe wine

With the slightest tang

My mouth watered

As did her eyes

Then it was just I

With empty hands

As she faded away

Her hands still full

Mine still warm

Deep breath in

The last we shared

One I wouldn't let out
