Slowly Dying

Slowing dying,
he was becoming more weak.
Slowly dying,
a silent tear ran down her cheek.
Slowly dying,
he took her hand.
Slowly dying,
she couldn't bare to stand.
Slowly dying,
his eyes started gushing.
Slowly dying,
her mind started rushing.
Slowly dying,
he pulled her close.
Slowly dying,
she longed for his kiss most.
Slowly dying,
he whispered, "I love you," in her ear.
Slowly dying,
she wished it was all she'd ever hear.
Slowly dying,
he let go of her hand.
Slowly dying,
she needed help to stand.
Slowly dying,
he began to close his eyes.
Slowly dying,
all she could do was watch and cry.
