You're My Love

I hold onto you like we’re going to die,
You smile and kiss my head.
I feel a small tear let loose,
And try to remember what you said.

When my mind goes blank,
I scream out loud and curl into a ball.
I just can’t live this way anymore,
I hold my knees close and start to bawl.

You hold me in the courtyard near our school,
I take in your scent before it’s too late.
I hear your words crystal clear,
I frown one last time as I watch my life goes by in a spate.

I see the lights in the distance,
I just can’t tell you what’s coming.
I cry silently as the lights hit us,
I open my eyes and see you shining.

I sit by you day and night,
Hoping and praying for your safety.
I watch the monitor beep,
As I see your motionless body.

I cry every night for you,
As god watches from above.
I hold your arm as the machine goes blank,
Because babe, you’re my love.
