Chronicles of Courage XI

Tu ne sauras jamais…
No, you would never know
Know of the woman, who spent some of her best days
Living with you
Every moment, everyday, waking up smiling at you
And going to sleep while staring at your sleeping face
You would never either know of your life together or of her
For you spent all the time, sleeping under the thickest blanket

You could never know
How she caressed your short hair,
How she stared at the closed eyelids,
How she stayed at your bedside, making sure you were safe and warm
Or how she treasured your hands
Hands that never intended to reach out to her

She never saw your eyes
She never heard your voice
She never had your arms around her
She never told you of herself
Even the slightest trace of her time by your side
Would be wiped long before you are awaken

Yet her magic will grant you a sound sleep
Sealed with the kiss she left before leaving.
Sweet dreams, my love, sweet dreams!
