"I remember her hands"

@Uootem

Her hands,
    move so decidedly,
                like water in a steady stream,
                        beautifully,
                            in the shadows of moonlight.
            music emanates,
                  from her fingertips...
                                as she touches my face
                                            for she is the music of my heart.

I move towards her... asking
              why did she leave me?
                        all alone in this world
                                      like a night sky with no stars.
                and under that sky are her hands,
                            at most times,
                                  gentle and delicate,
                                                  but without warning gone.
                  no longer sweet and gentle,
                              causing pain,
                                    so dangerous to my soul.
                      bringing a never-ending touch of loneliness,
              tears... ripping my heart apart.
                                left alone searching for an answer.

I remember her hands...
                    all the warmth they brought
                                        all the tenderness... guiding me to love.
