take my one last breath,
and don't forget.
that I will be
right here waiting.
i get up off my bed
as the thought of you
awakens me
i walk downstairs
and wash my shirt
but nothing removed
the stain of your memory
the stain of when i thought you let go
the pain that made me bleed
the pain of your succinct words
that always hurt to read
these flowery i love yous
were said last year
we don't say it anymore
but know that i'll always be here
i can forget what you said
forget the good & the bad
i can forget all the borrowed time
but i can't forget
what we had
i read your messages today
i smiled even when it hurt like hell
it hurt that i know things have changed
and we don't say the things
we used to tell
'forget them', you said
but you know i remember
i remember how i met you
or how we smiled
in the night
of the cold december
we have grown distant
we have grown apart
'stay', you said
when you never really left my heart
please stay until i'm gone
i'm here.
hold on to me
i'm right here,
waiting.
and don't forget.
that I will be
right here waiting.
