It will be you that I see I loved you once. For that mere fact, I will always love
you...even though you don't deserve it. Shame rises in my throat like
acid, and I realize for the first time...that in fact, I never deserved
you. Despite the sudden faltering of my heart and the sting of salt
upon my eyes, I love you still. I want to hate you, forget you, bury
those seeds that never had a chance to bloom into something of splendid
color and beauty. You were supposed to be the last thing my eyes beheld
before they closed for the final time....and now you're gone. I still
remember the softness of your smile, your soul crushing mine. I have
no choice but to hold on to you... I only held you once in my arms...but
I will hold you in my heart for more than you can imagine. No matter
where you are... When my eyes close the last time...it will be you that
I see. |
