The Final Embrace

Every time I was with you I was complete
The emptiness inside me no one can succeed
Now as the day dawns upon us to be apart
Tears from my eyes neutralizes the burning in my heart

As I wait and you begin to move your feet
People around you start to greet
So hard I try still I frown
When I lost your picture tears were down

That was it the final time I saw your face
I had a wish to have a final embrace
