I was sleeping when you died downstairs
Jess said you birthed a little smile
With your last soundless breath
But she woke me right away
And I could still feel you in the room
Looking around a little dazed as we were
Seeing everything had changed
What could possibly be next
Without your necessary presence
In a body we could touch
But you were bathed and kissed
And dressed in your favorite clothes
While you watched and waited smiling
As we wept you on your way
