I tried to escape the fears
Of losing you.
In my heart I believed
That you will live,
But in my mind,
I know you’ll be gone.
I held your hand tight
While you suffered from pain.
I heard your heart beat more faintly
Every second past.
The rose you gave me,
Damped with blood,
Is now dying
Just like you are.
Death is coming
To take you away.
I told you
Not to give up.
But you just gave me a smile,
A sad, painful one.
Then you closed you eyes,
Your last tear fell,
And drifted away.
I know you’ll wait for me
Up there in heaven.
But now you are gone,
You’re just a memory.
