"Everlasting Love"

April 1, 2016

Open your eyes

I'm floating through the darkness

Open your eyes

I'm falling into despair

Open your eyes

I'm growing weak

Open your eyes

This is too much to bear

Please open your eyes

I want to be strong

Please open your eyes

I don't want to give up

Please open your eyes

I want to wake up

Please open your eyes

I don't want to die

I'm begging you to hold on

I'm loosing my grasp

I'm begging you to fight

This is no longer my battle

I'm begging you to stay strong

Don't you understand I want to sleep

I'm begging you to wake up

God said this is my time to leave

Please don't do this

I hope you understand

You know I can't live without you

You will go on without me

You're the other half of me

I love you unconditionally

You'll be the death of me

I cannot speak any longer.

I am done

I.........am......g..o...n............
