Hold Me

Hold me

Its dark, out there,
To leave your side,is not what I wanted
too scared to lose someone so precious.
But the darkness calls me,
Haunts me, as if it is one with my soul.
Leave you I must,for the fear of losing you forever.

The happiness betrays me
It gives me hope of a new dawn,
A new life pretentious, false.
To end like this, I never wanted.
Just to let you know, If there is
an emotion called love,it was there
For you. You just had to open the chest,
And the treasure would have been yours.

I thought there was, a place for me,
It was for my grave to be built, now I know.
Its getting colder, my numbing veins
Cough up the last of blood, that there was
In me. I can see the stagnation of red
Surrounding me, I ponder, shrouded in
Myself, Now you need not buy me a funeral shroud.
A dying wish, if you can, fulfill it for my time is near.

Hold me, for it is getting colder.
Hold me, for the times I have lost myself.
Hold me, for I cannot see you anymore
Hold me, for my breath is about to leave...
