Lover

How did you hold him?
Was it like this?
Could you feel his heart beating
As you savored his kiss?

Did you cradle him gently
In the nest of your arms
And promise him something
That faded at dawn?

How could you miss it?
It's so obvious now
His eyes lingered sadly
While you broke every vow

But how can I blame you
For you were so young --
Your heart must have faltered
Just before it went numb
