Death Notes


The thoughts drip through my mind over and over again, she's gone now and I'm to blame.
The shattered pieces of my soul have been put to Shame.
I beg you awake me from this nightmare it's not a game.
Save me or I'll be gone tomorrow with no one else to remember my name.
See the man before you is no longer the same, this fire inside can't be tamed.
I lost it all oh what I'd do for a chance to remember her face her sweet name.
So I sit and pondered the pain again and again.
Out the door I stepped onto the ground so dark outside and with the hour not a soul was around. What's her address I need a street sign, I want to know where she was so she can be mine.
I walked down a shady path through alleyways and open roads to a place where we grew up nothing left but stone.
The house abandoned I checked the inside, where could she be where's the girl I want to be mine?
A note hangs on a tree that fills me with tears, "I'm gone my dear but do not fret for I'll always be near."
I ran inside for any traces of what she left, all gone except a note on her desk.
"Please don't look any longer you'll only be disappointed."
But I had to know what became of her so on I went.
One last note that made my mind spin.
"this is my grave my sweet, I know you're sad I told you don't look for me."
On the stone it reads I waited my whole life for you to come back, she is gone forever but I feel she wiill always be in my heart and I believe that.
