Captain Swan One Shots

The Assurance (Part 4)

Today, I woke up calling your name

A dream of a rescue must have been to blame.

Lately, my restlessness has reached a new high

How can I dream if I've already died?

I try to hold on, to the hope of our love,

The hope of my family, the hope I dream of

But Killian, it's hard, when past gets in the way,

And their happy ending is my price to pay.

But after a year, my hope starts to fall

And even if you find me, you'll have to climb this new wall.

But what's really the point at the end of the day,

When the prophecy says that I have to stay?

I know that you're searching, and try as you might,

Please ask yourself if what you're doing is right.

I'm tired and lonely, and I miss you too,

But perhaps the right thing is to start anew.

You and my family, you'll have each other,

And though it may pain me, you can find love with another,

Killian, I love you, but this is the end,

Thank you, my pirate, my lover, my friend.

I hope you don't hate me for making this choice,

But you and the town, you should rejoice.

I'm sorry for doing this but the burden's too much

I miss your loving lips, I miss your strong touch,

I hope you don't miss me but the dagger took its toll

And I want to end it before my heart turns to coal.

I want to die loving you, so with this final farewell...

Wait, is that that you?

Into your arms I fell.
