In Life We Shared and In Death We Part

Dew drops fell on my eyelids, as I lay upon dampened ground I sighed and looked heavens up astound, wishing for the pain to cease I wiped my brow of all crease with dismay my mind wonders If it really is she that is yonder Against the golden glow her warm sight comes in a flow a phantasmal being that is as yet real For now I can only dream and so strong that I can feel but all is not what it seems though as much I yearn and dream I can only lay in sin and shame discover you will that it was glory and fame that leads to your dismay I wake up abrupt and say A dream so accurate and real that I could smell perfume and scent just from a dream just from a dream I can feel so cold after you made me so bold? My story I recited for all to hear not full with half a page atear a watermark of my pain and the gurgling well you hid within A wall was built under the satin quilt burrow deep inside you warmed me here there and on all sides in the night as we cried each other's tears we gently dried I awake to see the former image you adorn it with hackneyed adage to remember the loss I feel nevertheless you tingled deep my skin and teal Even though I saw you weren't real I knew you were there though ethereal My life sucks but yet surreal from dream to wake you have gone from cake to bake Lost all reality within walls so fake aha! That icing and flake on which I did take and retake to feel sick from overindulgence till the dream soured as much as you had done for now I take this gun let me also have one for in life we shared and in death we part its time my dream bird that we say adieu and depart.
