"To aid my darling beloved;
The one whom I hold most dear,
The one person who's never so much as thought to bring me pain...
That is my purpose at this time,
But it pains me so to know...
That my body is broken!
I am stuck in a haze of helpless, hopeless sorrow;
Unable to utter a word of regret,
Though my mind, it is full of it!
So many years!
So many weeks!
So many days...
So many things I wish I could've done...
For him... and with him...
Unable to utter a word of thanks,
Though my mind, it is full of it!
So many memories,
And none of them sour!
The only thoughts of sorrow I've associated with him have come from...
My departure...
I'll never live by his side again...
Unable to utter a word of compassion,
Though my mind, it is so full of it!
So many times I have looked upon you,
And not one of them was not better than the last!
I looked upon you and saw beauty,
I looked upon you and saw love,
I looked upon you and saw my future.
Those looks, that last one in particular...
They have caught up to me...
Our time is done.
I cannot utter a word...
All I can do is think of you...
And weep.
Weep, as I would almost swear,
That through my padlocked eyes...
I could see you doing as well.
So I will go on weeping.
I will shed tears for you,
To help you,
And if they do not aid in your well-being,
Then take them as payment!
Payment for times passed
Payment for a life of long-standing compassion
Payment for you.
And when you can join me again some sunny day, know this:
Never again will we feel this pain.
Never again will we be torn apart.
We will spend eternity locked in each other's arms,
So help me God."
