Poem Title:
Poem
I don't like to say goodbye, And I don't mind an honest white lie. If you could hold me, If you could love me, If you could lie to me, And tell me one last promise we both know you can't keep, Could you please? Because I don't wanna see the world die, I'm sorry. Because I don't wanna watch it all go by, I'm sorry. Because I just want to hold you like I used to, I'm sorry. And I just want to feel you as we fall with the hue, I'm sorry, Please don't forgive me. I've watched mountains crumble, I've seen gods stumble, And I think I'd join their ranks if you said goodbye. Weary is the heart that heaves a humbled mumble of a sigh. Please don't forgive me, I knew it was doomed from the start, But that was never an excuse for me to tear out anyone's heart. I walked down the street that blurted out its own name, And I climbed that stone wall by the south shop to go slide down into the rain. It was nice awhile then, Lost in a line gathering folks up to safe haven, But I started to miss your sunshine. Wishing the thoughts I think could ever be mine. I knew my mistakes, Scoured into my flesh and acclaiming my spirits to falling frost flakes. I'm sorry, Please don't forgive me. I burned my insides. It made me cry. It made me laugh. You were there, And I couldn't care. It really didn't matter when, My eyes bled out when you were there, And so softly I would stop and stare. I'm sorry. Please tell me it will be alright, Tell me I will be alright. I don't care if you're lying, Because all I need is somebody to tell me to keep on trying. My heart will always be with you. I'll always be yours if you please put me in your soul, Strum some music on my heartstrings as I let go. Because I wanna be with you. I don't care about the cold, I don't want to grow old, I wanna be with you. It's warm by your fireside, And I think I need someplace safe to hide. I want to love everything and you, Like there's nothing else in this world that I'd rather do. It's such a long night. And I'm restless in the dark. The light's too bright, But the moon's already scraped its mark into my heart. And I can't help but smile, And I can't help but cry, And I can't help but laugh, When you hold me so gently in your eye. When you leave, Please say "See you around." Because I'm scared and I need something to relieve, The sharp shards of frost curled on the tips of the ground. Thank you. I love you abound, And I'll see you, -end-
