One Last Time

I feel your breath upon my cheek Your heartbeat next to mine Cradled in your arms; but know It’s just for one last time I look into your eyes: you smile That smile just breaks my heart Lying here so close, but know We’re really worlds apart As I watch you sleep A single tear falls from my eye I know deep down your leaving me I know this is goodbye I close my eyes and silently I pray to God above That I will wake from sleeping Still beside this man I love As I pray he looks at me And gently wipes my tears He holds me in his arms His whispers chase away my fears He tells me that he loves me How much to him I mean But suddenly I realise It’s really just a dream For when my eyes are open In the cold cruel light of day I know my prayers weren’t answered I know he’s gone away What do I do now How am I supposed to feel How do I move on Do I bleed, or do I heal Do I face the truth Or do I live on lets pretend But sadly deep inside I know We've reached our journeys end..
