Can'T Live Without You

Her heart rate speeds up Moisture seeps into her eyes As she stares down at the girl Who once was herself Up in heaven she shall watch A memorial served within her honor Loved ones have gathered around Dressed in all black Out of respect for the dead Heads are bowed down low Teardrops fall from their cheeks A priest at the stands Willing her to peace Hearts break And never fill in Until finally it ends People file out But right at her grave One person still stands brave He lays down some flowers With a carved wooden box Then he leaves silently So she walks up behind She opens the box Peering down within While her heart breaks again A gold metal heart On a bed of hay On the engraving it shall say 'My love, for you, on our anniversary You’re my everything My life I can’t live without you' A hand brushes hers She quickly turns around In front of her eyes Stands the boy she loves Frigid is how she stands Thinking this is all a trick Until he leans in towards her And whispers in her ear "It’s true I can’t live without you"
