Forever Dear
-M.Y.

The slow beating of a heart
Like the soft beat of a drum
Breathing a steady whimper
A whisper of nights mourn

The gentlest of pictures
Blurring in my mind
As the carving starts to falter
Fading in due time

Your arms are holding me tight
As you're looking into my eyes
Oh how dear your eyes had shone
And our love breathlessly glowed

Though I had never imaged..
I just couldn't live a life without you.
I shouldn't have always thought
You'd forever be by my side

How any being would've been lucky
To have what we were blessed
I was bitterly careless
As my cloth hath stained red

My heart is forever yours
Hold it gently my dear love
Because it is not given so effortlessly
As our hearts are held shut

You were taken in a mist
So fast, like the caving of my heart.
Buried deep in monstrous guilt
Of self pitting thoughts.

Only you hadn't faded as many told
And the pictures stayed perfectly clear
In my mind you'll always be mine
Mine to hold forever dear.
