As lovers we needed tomorrow
to begin another
new day.
The news was a crushing blow
to the horror
called yesterday.
I reached out
and touched her gently
hiding the fact that I was scared.
It's so hard to tell her now
when I am not at all
prepared.
I'm losing my sight much quicker
and soon
blindness will take over me.
If I can never again
see your face
then fate is my misery.
Time has become my enemy.
All color
will fade away
but as lovers
we still need each other
to start another new day.
When you know of the test
before us
we shall always continue to share
this journey called life
together
as only two lovers can bear.
Let me lovingly gaze
at our flowers
we planted years ago.
I need to cherish
this special memory
so my imagination will always know.
In this world of countless lovers
it is the gift of those
who pray
and as I forever love you,
my darling,
tomorrow will be another new day.
