"I love you" Isaid
And you shook your head
"That part of me
Has long been dead""I love you" I said
And you walked away
"Thats your problem
But I'll fix it today""I love you" I said
Tears in your eyes
"This would be easier
If I wasn't to die""I love you" I said
Pleading desperately
But the words stayed
Locked inside of meI gave up hope
That I'd be loved
So their ignorance
Became my only sun"I love you" he said
Finally
Only I couldn't
Make myself believe"I love you" he said
"Show me"
But he didn't get
That he would leave"I love you" he said
"With everything"
I stared stony eyed
Not seeing"I love you" he said
Promising
But his words were weak
Finally comprehending"I love you" he said
As he turned to leave
"But I understand
That you can't love me""I love you" I said
As he walked away
But so quietly
It was lost in the rain"I love you" I said
But it's better this way
Because he cant follow me
Into the grave
