On that cold, last night I held you in my arms till you fell asleep and I couldn't because I knew that this was my last. I stayed awake while you slept just so I could see you smiling to dream a beautiful dream this innocence remembered but taken away these past months. To have a good nights' sleep again I would give about anything not to worry about dying in your sleep waking to the ground shaking beneath and so I stay awake still. I dont want to fall asleep anymore even as my eyes close because I'm afraid I won't see you again. maybe we will meet in our dreams yet as sweet a dream it will never be the same as a moment with you and so I stay awake. your angelic smile fades and your eyes slowly open to this unfair reality realizing the temporariness tears run down your face as I am still awake. |
