What kin am I 

You asked
Who are you
Anyway?

Something
Somewhere
Somehow
Intensely familiar

Aggrandised maybe
Larger than life
Larger than you
Larger than me

We hold on
In desperation
Clinging
Pleading even

A minute longer
Let me be
Let me love
Lost in you

For when you leave
Shadows fall
When you go
I do too

Wide eyed
Rapt
Lips puckered
I wish you

Wish you whole
Wish you happy
Wish you in the flesh
Will you with memory

Someday
Somewhere
Somehow 

You will cease

And I will cease
With you.
