You were mine.
I am yours.
Until this body,
marked by the love you laid upon it,
In every fold,
The softened belly,
Stretched skin,
Withers,
and in this frailty
Falls and follows you.
Only then,
no longer will I be...yours.
It will be past.
But with you,
In you,
Through you,
I’ll be.
I’ll wait.
A shadow.
Your shadow.
I’ll trail behind you.
A dark ribbon.
But you were mine.
And I am yours.

It's gorgeous whomever wrote it, but honestly, if that's your work, you are talented in yet another way.
And the tears come.
