I read, all our memories die with us,
They're only alive,
With the people we shared them with,
Yet, ours died way before either one of us did,
I seem to be the only one left,
Cupping them gently in my hands,
I still remember your eyes,
When you said I was beautiful,
Running to tell you, "what's up"
My hands moving faster than my mouth,
Your nods,
Even when you didn't understand.
I, now, in your absence
Still sit next to you within the hospital walls,
Remembering all those times you held my hand,
Stroked my hair,
Until all the blood was out.
I see you standing behind the window,
Refusing to sit,
Until the machines stopped whirring.
Telling me, we will get through this.
I am.
Do you know,
You were the only one in the whole world
With whom I felt completely like me?
Ran incredibly wildly free.
Silence has comfortably settled inside me,
Ever since the day you really went away,
Seems like I have nothing left to say,
But the lakes and the trees still talk to me.
Do you know of all the wondrous things I have seen,
Of the crazy adventures and the beauty?
Do you know my entire world will completely die with me?
Do you know,
Letting you go is still the hardest thing I've ever done?
Loving you made me so so brave,
But losing you has made me fearless,
The hand of fate has already struck,
What more is there left to lose?
Except only me, this time.
I keep my door open now,
For those who wish to leave.
Let them come.
Let them go.
There's no consolation they can offer me.
I always pray your side of the world is filled with grace,
Like mine, has been filled with repentance, tranquility, mercy and a whole lot of love,
All the things that make it gentle,
As I'm slowly starting to forget your voice and face
