...my Departed

I watch you lay there Withering before me. I fixate on your eyes... I will become lost within. My heart a fading whisper Of the life I once knew We drift away, knowing this is the end of my misery. I watch you lay there Withering before me. In slumber I find solace. Eternal darkness awaits you. I look to the window Dead leaves fall to the ground... Graceful, they lure me away Away from your loving gaze. I'm lost. You watch me, I lay here, Withering with you. Our eyes meet one last time. Why must this love end? Emptiness awaits me I take my last breath. These final moments I must now cherish them. My mind is free of this pain. I lay my head on your shallow breast and dream... As my heart fades, I become one with you. Please let me go... take with you the memories. I will never love again, this is my final goodbye. Your silence leaves this soul into pain. I would sacrifice forever to feel that love again. Embrace our shadow, the darkest of dreams... Memories are dying as we fade away...
