Our Last Goodbye

By Anonymous

As we lay here, my life flashes before my eyes
I can see all this time, your truth was filled with lies
The softness of your touch, the coolness of your breath
Made me believe your every word, until nothing was left

Empty tears fill your eyes
Cold fear is my demise
Your smooth, velvety voice
Is your weapon of choice
I always listen, every time
Never falter, always in line

As I sit here, I see my past, my present, my death
You lay there silent as a lamb, I savor each breath
I know I shouldn't, but still I do
Life would be unbearable without you

Dry tears fill your eyes
Cold fear is my demise
Your smooth, velvety voice
Is your weapon of choice
I always listen, every time
Never falter, always in line

As you look at me, your eyes smolder with such an intense green
Who could ever think that such beautiful eyes could be so mean
They twist and turn, filled with a hidden wickedness
And still I search them for some kind of sign, some kind of weakness

I find none

Hidden tears fill your eyes
Cold fear is my demise
Your smooth, velvety voice
Is your weapon of choice
I always listen, every time
Never falter, always in line

As I watch you arise, you're so angelic
It makes me feel so apologetic
I feel the panic wash through me, pulsing in my veins
I brace for what will happen next, I feel as though insane

Silent tears fill my eyes
Silence will be my demise
Silent is my voice
I have no weapon of choice
You never let the pain pass by
This is our last goodbye

You lock your arms around me in your final warm embrace
I'm dying inside, wanting to see your face
You whisper, soft and low, "I love you, goodbye forever"
With that you're gone, I will always be severed.

Hurting tears fill my eyes
Pain will be my demise
Your smooth,velvety voice
Is your weapon of choice
I always listen, every time
Never falter, always in line

As I lay here my life flashes before my eyes
I realize now that it was I who was filled with lies
I lay here on my death bed, thinking of one thought that was true
"You may or may not exist, either way," I whisper, "I will always love you"

Stillness fill my eyes
Heartbroken was the cause of my demise
Your smooth velvety voice
Was my weapon of choice
I will never listen, only believed the lie
And to this, I say my last, our last, "Goodbye"
