A Dying Heart Copyright (c)2001 Raquel Lung

by SweetGirl

He gently lays the roses-on a cold bed of dirt

A tear falls down-as a symbol of his hurt.

He stares at the stone-and falls to his knees

He looks at the sky-and cries out "Please!"

"Please let this be...some horrible mistake

Just a dream-and soon I'll wake!"

But the sun goes down-and the clouds appear

He rubs the stone-and wipes a tear.

Rain starts to fall-loneliness all around

He tries to lift up-but falls to the ground.

"Please come back-you're my whole life

I can't make it without you-My beautiful wife."

He sits all alone-and watches the trees

Swayin back and forth-from the silent breeze.

"I don't wanna leave you-I don't wanna go

I don't know if I can make it now...I just don't know."

He finally stands up-the tears rush down

His heart barely beating-and starting to drown.

"I will always love you-and I want you to know

My heart will never change-but forever will grow."

He turns very slowly-and starts to walk away

Knowing his happiness has ended-on this endless day
