Slumber So Deep

Dearest love, I hope Ill see you again. Pray dream of, for our hearts shall win. These last words, I write for you. Goodbye so absurd, we'll start anew. Our shared years, keep me alive. My horrible fears, will not thrive. I lie here, thinking of face. I fall not a tear, for your thoughts replace. Screams of lust, we'll continue to cry. With you my heart I trust, love will never die. You are everything, to my fragile heart. Silently I sing, soon our time shall start. When you get this, my beloved dear, Think of my kiss, and fall not a tear. In my mind, I look into your eyes. Serenity i'll find, as the horror shy's. Our calm tune, reaches the crescendo. We'll kiss soon, I hope you know. I see you smile, as I fall asleep. I'll awake in a while, in slumber so deep. This emptiness, has darkened my dreams. Struggle is useless, can't you hear my screams. These chains constrict me, I swear I'll be free. Heroes always pay, with their own blood. We'll be together one day, as I fight through our teary flood. Has this been true, will I surely die? I think of you, and can't help but cry. I walk away, path to the gallows. In my heart you'll stay, I hope this shows. My dear, we'll make this work. I'll always be here, in your mind I lurk. Swallow your tears, I beg of you. For the rest of our years, love will remain true.
