Cryptic (Part 15)

As she laid there with her head against the pillow
staring up into his eyes
she felt a drop splash against her cheek.
He was crying for some reason.
She closed her eyes and thought hard on what to say
for she knew what they had together may not last.
Another drop and then the words "I love you"
were being whispered to her from this gentle mans lips
as he bent down slowly and kissed her softly.
This was the kiss that she had dreamed of and now he was crying.
"What's wrong" she asked, "nothing" he replied " I love you".
These were happy tears from deep inside his soul
and she accepted them and his love.
It had been many years for each of them to get to this moment
and feel the love that they had both craved.
As she felt him touch the most deepest and intimate parts
of her mind and body she whispered back "I love you too,
I have always loved you".
Time had vanished and the past slowly melted into the present.
What was in store for these two and why they had been brought together
was not important now as they embraced.
Little did they know that what they had just felt together
was both the beginning and the end of their journeys.
