I feel your presence
Your breath softly
Falling in and out
I hear your call
Your mournful voice
Reaching out
I remember
Your presence here
Now gone
I miss you
I miss you so
My love
You’re all
All
I think about.

When I hear my heart
Pounding
My breath takes away
All the fear I had living
Past yesterday
My feet planted in heaven
My arms embracing love
Now I can face tomorrow
Knowing
I had you my dear
Sweet love.

Fortunately
I’m not in the company
Of those that would expose
My faults and misfortunes
Fortunately.
Fortunately
My heart’s not broken
Or my breath stripped of air
And my head still works
Fortunately.
Fortunately
I’m in the company of good
Life is filled and fortunate
Fortunately.

Brushed beside me, felt your breath
Shudders running up from deep, dark depths
Dim black places no one should accept
Brushed beside me, felt your breath.
Brushed beside me, felt your breath
Down beneath me, down the depths
Sadden figure reaching out
Brushed beside me, felt your breath.
