Until my Final Breath(reposted)

by livefreebright   Oct 4, 2005


It was a snowy night
And I should have known
You didn't want to come out
But I begged over the phone

Please I want to see you
And you finally gave in
So happy that you agreed
But something felt wrong within

Felt it all the way to your house
Even has we laughed out loud
Grasping each other as we slipped
On the icy ground

I remember the way you smiled
And pleaded with me
Asking me where we were going
And I replied "you'll see"

I knew how much I loved you
Want to spend my life with you
All the time we've spent together
Look at how much we grew

Staring at your face
The bright lights blinding me
Wasn't ready for what happened next
Yet It's all still clear to me

The impact of the car
Ramming into the side
Throwing my head into the glass
Some teenagers on a joyride

I woke later that night
Your scream ringing in my ear
Laying in a hospital bed
Suddenly remembering why I'm here

Dashed out of the door
And headed down the hall
Spotted your family standing there
Lose of breath caused me to fall

They lead me into the room
Still unable to believe
You promised me forever
Why did you have to leave

Kissed your pale forehead
And said a final goodbye
Then quickly went from the room
A single tear fell from my eye

Walked out into the snow
And across the street
I lost a part of my soul
And my life was incomplete

Pulled the gun from my pocket
And put it to my head
In a minute I'd be with you
Laying in our death bed

Closed my eyes tight
And pulled the trigger slow
Didn't even feel the pain
Of the bullets blow

Woke from my slumber with a start
My breath heavy and quick
My head still pounding
Like I'd been hit with a brick

Then all the memories came back
Still haunted by your face
I told you it was forever
These times will never erase

Dream of you every night
Even though you don't know me
Maybe someday I'll find you
In this new life that's come to be

Until the day I die
And even after death
I will love you forever
Even after my final breath
