Tiny twists, Tiny turns (Poem)

“Yes, I'm here my love.
      Ssssh, you musn't cry...no,
I have not  run away. 
There is only this and that – me too watchful to let
      mercy become chagrined 
No, not at all, you are as soft tired light seeping out of the
                        dusk.
Yes, I'm here to watch you die. 
Quite so.  A final sorry for the road?
Oh, your journey won't be long, a few twists
                        a few turns,
you'll be with me soon enough. 
Drink, my dove,
you are thirsty,
and I am late on the witching hour."
