Love Poem: Let The Angels Talk

This tragic love poem is dedicated to an old co-worker who has been though hell. I don’t know what I would do in the same situation, but I know he has more strength than I do in this situation. It is time to let the angels talk, old friend. Enjoy.
Your hand in mine, I watch you fade
The strength of life seeping from you
You’ve fought the good fight today
We know I’d never be as strong
Now it is time to rest, let the angels talk
Selfish demons niggle at my heart
This should be about me, what about us
I have to push them aside and assure you
I will live on; I know you’ll live on
Now it is time for silence, let the angels talk
Your hands are so cold and bones so frail
The fire in your eyes have dimmed long ago
I hear the gentle rasp of life clutching
And know there is not much time left for us
Now it is time to let go, let the angels talk
You have my heart
I’ll never be the same
