III - one last time [poems]

#5

there's a storm raging out there

the loudest sounds make the ground tremble and i'm struck with terror

the apocalypse started, and it's waiting for me

the world is slowly falling to pieces all around me,

like an unstoppable and deadly spiral

it keeps getting closer and closer

when will this cold curse get to me?

i feel like when it does, everything will end at once

everything will disappear

it's so close to me now,

my hands are shaking

i'm so cold

the second this all-powerful wave of destruction touches my skin, it's all over

i'll cease to exist

that's how it feels

will you remember me? when i'm miles away from you, will you remember me?

will you still think of me? will you remember my face, hear my voice?

after everything has fallen, after i'm gone, will you still remember me?

i feel like death is coming for me, i know it's going to hurt but i'm not worried

i can only feel sorrow because dying also means losing you and i'm not sure i can take it

please, remember me

when i'm all alone in this dark strange place, i'll close my eyes and remember

remember these times of joy, now they are long gone

i'm so cold

you'll never love me, i'm now sure of this

i would not deserve it anyway

once i'm gone, everything will be settled

who will take my place? will they care as much as i do?

are they brave? would they protect you against everything?

i won't be there to see it so i want to be sure

my time has almost come and i don't want to go

i'm so cold when i'm all alone

i'm so cold when you're not around

i don't want to go

but leaving means moving on,

and that's the only decision i'm able to make

when the world is finally buried in chaos

and everything about me is forgotten

please, remember me
