Alex W. Poet I do not know?

My Chemical Romance

Sunsets pass, grass keeps 
growing, over your grave and 
around your mausoleum.
Tarnished and faded names, 
just like your ghost. It's not like 
we ever planned this, but it's 
not like we never saw it 
coming.
Since when is fighting it 
easy...even when you were 
fighting for me.  
Gurneys weren't built to chase 
hearses but they had already 
prepared for you.  
I knew the chemicals were 
against us but I thought we had 
more time.  
I knew you were past gone, 
that you couldn't hang on much 
longer, but I sat by you and 
held onto you as long as I 
could.  
I couldn't think of you as one 
more I'd lost.
 I couldn't get past the infinite 
abyss that would take your 
place.    
I will never get past you but I 
know to carry on until my time 
comes to be in your arms 
forever.
