My heart races onward, forward, faster

Awaiting the storm, the plague, disaster

The seconds tick away, painfully slow

Dread fills my heart, for the awaiting sorrow

My pulse quickens, along with my breath

The time has come for sunrise, for death

My sobs fill the air, blood flows from him

My friend, my brother, my only kin

I can't watch, I can't look away

My lips form the words my mouth can't quite say

"Goodbye, good friend"

I'm lost in the end

Never more shall be the

Happiness that once lives inside me
