Je me souviens

Shine bright, my love,

as I live this life for you and me.

Stay forever in my memories for as long as you can

as I tread along this path of undoing my wrong

for the right I could never give you.

Stay with me, I beg, unless you find a better life 

away from me.

But as you take your steps away from the world

I gave you no choice to,

do look back to see all the greatness i wanted for you.

That the bloodshed felt was for 

a quick release from the merciless world I wanted but could not

protect you from.

Days growing cold as i feel you

fading away from the body in which

felt closest to you. 588 days and still

counting.  Inspiration turning towards a close,

not knowing what to live for

as I see your hand release from mine

without hesitation, without the desire to look back

at the soul that can never be forgiven.

No tears shed from the eyes that

i will forever love most, but can only be 

understood. For who cries

for the murderer who claims 

of logic and reason when actions will forever

speak louder than words and intent.

588 days and the womb that 

resides in these loins

can only live for the day in which

you walk away.  How odd it is

that as I plead for you to stay 

forever within my memories,

within my life…

I would rather you leave the cold world

that you stay stagnant in,

to 

finally 

live.
