I just met you, and I think I'm in love. I'm crazy in love. We'll be together forever, perfect this way. I know you have to go, but I'll sink so low. There's no way I'll be able to stay. You're gone now, but I'll see you soon. You'll be here next year, half past noon.
It's been ten months, I can't believe it. I got the news today. I miss you, dear. My life line's gone, and right now, I've no reason to stay. I cried and I cried thinking about how I'll never see you again. And I thought to myself that I was going through hell, and didn't want to be here anyway.
I walked around town and saw kids hanging out; I didn't care and went through with it today. I studied the street underneath, followed my feet, and walked up the bridge to look down. I took a deep breath and swallowed my fear, there's no way I can live without you here. Just one little leap and again, together we'll be. I felt the wind through my hair, closed my eyes, had no fear, and embraced the darkness around me.
I woke in a strange place, expecting to see you. However, you were nowhere in view. I cried yet again, as you came walking in. I don't understand how this can be. You looked at my face with pain in your eyes saying, "Baby, I'm here, don't leave me." I told you what I'd heard, you looked at me puzzled and said there'd been a mistake. I smiled before the doctor came in, saying there's no way I could possibly make it.
You broke down in tears, thinking about all the years and the times that we've shared together. I began to feel tired as you pulled me in saying, "Baby, I love you. Please get better." You gave me a kiss and prayed for me with an "Amen". I looked up to you and smiled, "I love you. See you in a little while," and let the darkness embrace me again.
