Love That Never Dies

She would stay locked in her room,
all curled up in a corner.
She was afraid to walk outside;
afraid of all the horror.

Her mind was exhausted,
her heart was tired,
she prayed through the tears one last time,
then the shot was fired.

Her face wasn't filled with agony,
and for the first time since that day,
her heart wasn't beating for him;
her heartbeat faded away.

He laid a rose upon her grave,
and got down on one knee,
he whispered through his lips for the first time,
thanks for saving me.

A tear fell from his cheek,
and through his blood shot eyes,
you could see the meaning,
of the true love that never dies.

Everytime you hear the waves,
crash upon the shore,
think of her now resting in peace,
and finally knowing what she stood for.
