The Last

As I lay my head upon your chest Listen closely as you breathe I can feel your heartbeat racing At the thoughts of you and me. And I never thought I'd see the day When your breath would finally cease The beating of your heart no longer Beat for you and me. I could scream into the evening Think of all of my regrets The things I always thought of you But to scared to have said. I can feel the demons calling They are clawing from within I would gladly trade my life for you So you could of seen how much you meant. I've been staring at your grave stone now And it feels like it's been years And my face is red and burning from A million falling tears. I only feel uncertain Worlds been blown away. What I wouldnt do to just Have another day. And as I draw my last breath My heart beats slow and shallow I can feel you on my chest You tell me I can follow. I can see you after all Your always certain smile The door is open here we go We enter through the hollow. Together after all We made it through the fall.....
