Last Words

Last Words

And yet when the sun rises again I will join you in your palace of hopes and dreams,
the same palace you swore up and down was smashed and broken.
I have loved and I have lost but you my dear friendĀ 
have made an impact on me I cannot dismiss.
Every small memory etched into my brain,
your scent, your touch, your eyes, and every little thing you would tell me you hated.
Those small stupid things.
Everything seemed to bother you; you're perfect darling,
I wanted to spend my whole life to prove it to you.
Oh please, please don't leave me.
Your shallow breaths are becoming undetectable, are you still with me?
How can I warm death?
Please, I'll do anything to help.
At last I know I cannot save you, as I can not rescue a fish on land.
If your soul still lingers I hope you listen to my words, it's all I have left.
I hope you find your everlasting bliss, because you were mine;
But even the prettiest flower must someday die.
You're turning gray sweetheart,
your color is gone, your lips and cheeks are no longer rosy;
Please open your eyes and tell me this is a joke, a cruel trick.
I'm living my worst nightmare, everything's cloudy.
It's as if I can feel the world spinning, I'm dizzy, I need you.
You and I were a lot alike, we both walked the sands of sadness.
We both jumped in, before we knew of the consequence,Ā 
We both hit the dark seas, but I jumped in years before,
She was only my life preserver; without her, I'm lost.
She was downing in the seas of depression but I,
I was sinking.Ā

SO BEGINS THE TASK
And so begins the task I have dreaded the coming of....
For so long I wait for the sun to remind my body it needs rest.

And I must learn to live without you now
I must learn to live without you now.

I must learn to give only part somehow.....
