Abandon all our Dreams

The day started, but little did I know it would be an end to my dreams, That what was about to happen would end up with a long gut-wrenching scream, The weather was grey, the dark sky was threatening rain, I was nearing a world of excruciating pain. When we met it was with a smile, a hug and a looking forward stare, Neither of us knowing what was to come so we continued without any care. We sat side by side holding hands and waiting, We talked, planning our future both happily innovating, Then the call came, we were next into the room, The room was dark, it felt as if it was full of gloom. We sat together, still holding each other’s hand, The man behind the desk looked sad, his skin was milky, sort of bland. He looked up and said he had bad news, He just said we have run out of options, there’s nothing more to choose, He said the woman I loved was going to die, I just went blank, I couldn’t even cry. He said she had days, days not even a week, We knew we had lost everything we had wanted to seek. But this day was done, it certainly was not I had dreamed, It was the day to abandon everything inside I just screamed.
