The last grin

Was it a random jibe that made no sense,
Some oh-so-cool inanity?
Perhaps a hug from who knows whence,
When we crumbled, needing sanity?

Did it halt the worldly spin,
As they so often did?
Caress the lonely child within,
Amongst my frailties hid?

It might have come on slow but broad,
It might have lit the night,
It maybe when I struck a chord,
Brought you deserved delight.

I cannot recall the reason why,
As it declines into the past,
That smile remembered with a sigh,
From you, for me the last.
