The Present : the Future

I want you to stay forever. I'll die alone but we'll learn together: Each passing day is one to keep Down on paper- in too deep. All skies fade from blue to black But birds still sing our memories back. The grounds here quake until I'm asleep. In Earth's arms, I'll rest at ease. I warned you, I know no better. What comes after doesn't matter. We're here for now, and now is best To put our time here to its test. And like the skies, we fade too; But maybe we fade from black to blue. The light is brighter than you see, So take my hand. Follow me.
