Tell me
What happened when we stopped being young
Skin cracked up, brittle bones
Do we wither to dust?
I must know where I stand
I held your hand
For half my life
Am I half the man I used to be?
Cause you did more than just stay with me
I stare down them all
Would you understand when I fade away
It took every part of me to stay
I wanted to stay
Listen to the sound of my voice
You are strong
You never needed me to go on
It was a choice you made
Now keep your promise
Live your life with no regret
And accept that I've left
I will leave you with this warmth
That you held the day we met
I still can't feel you now
Quiet days, endless nights
Her thoughts had never really been so black and white
She stays well composed for now
A distinct lack of color as she lays nearly comatose
In her dreams we will meet again
I swear we will meet again
My darling
