Let Me Touch Your Hand
I've pleaded with you
I've tried
Why isn't it you want to stay alive
I know you're tired
But now your body i can never revive
So Let me touch your hand
The warmth before you go
You lay there with sorrow
A soft look on your face
A blank canvas
All your emotions are concealed
My heart is breaking, and it can never be healed
So let my touch your hand
The warmth before you go
I remember the nights we were together
You'll soon forget that
And all our memories
The love we shared
I now only hear the sound of sad melodies
So Let me touch your hand
The warmth before you go
The last breath of fresh air
The cruel time as your passing
Will seem to last forever
What will i do when your gone
My heart will never get better
So Let me touch your hand
The warmth before you go
My heart will weep
And the rain will continue pouring
Any minute it'll be over
I can't let you go
Into heaven you will soon crossover
So Let me touch your hand
The warmth before you go
Your heart steady beeping
The same rhythm as mine
But now your breathing quickly
And your whispers sounds shy
Your face now, is turning sickly
So Let me touch your hand
The warmth before you go
Forever i will remember
The smile that beamed so bright
The hugs that held me tight
The cries we shared at night
The feelings we felt under the moonlight
So Let me touch your hand
The warmth before you go
But now you've faded into the light
Taken by the breath of death
I lean to kiss your cheek
As i leaned over your body, it felt weak
And when i left
I touched your hand
And it was cold when you were gone
So now i will walk on my own
Continue the life you've imagined
Embrace the love you've given
But that will never be enough
For now your gone
I miss the touch of you hand
And the warmth before you were gone

A sad piece about death of a loved one. A little dark, a little sad, a little happy ending. Dont worry if u shed a tear when reading this, I may have shed a couple writing it.
