We've walked many places,
Me and you,
We've seen many faces,
and happiness too.
We've walked many miles,
You and I,
We've shared many smiles,
And openly cried.
Your hands felt cold,
When I held them last,
When you told me you were getting old -
I made sure our friendship would always last.
Your hair was getting gray,
And your face as pale as a sliver of moon -
I got so afraid,
That you'd pass away soon.
I'll never forget,
When you last looked at me,
You looked filled with regret,
A look I didn't want to see.
You held my arm tight,
and you whispered to me,
"I don't want to fight,
because I'll soon be free"
You told me you'd walked through rooms,
Filled with bright lights,
You focused on doom,
Because that's what your parents had told you was right.
I took your hand in mine,
And I saw your lips curl,
I held you for one last time,
Before you left the world.
We've lived together,
You and I,
And we'll still live together,
Although you have died.
My heart will always have an empty space,
Like a permanent loan,
So, Just in case -
If I'm feeling alone...
I know you will never leave my memories,
For you always cared,
As long as you remember me,
I know you'll always be there.
