One Last Time

You pulled me in and held me close,
but I already knew what was coming.
Between your soft whispers and silky touch,
your heart beat far away and longing.
You played it safe so as not to break me,
careful eyes set to mine as you led me,
led me on into the twinkly night.
You always ended wrong with right.
Gently, so gently, you lay me down,
giving yourself to me one last time.
One. Last. Time.
And you'd be gone.
