T/W- Mentions of death
Every step you take is a step closer to our inevitable parting
Every moment gained together is a moment closer to when it ends
Who will be the first to go, I wonder, to that final road?
Sometimes I hope it is me,
The thought of a world without you tearing
Me apart like a pair of shears to clothing,
And yet love makes me pray
It is you who goes first to the final road
As much as I wish you never have to leave
For I would never wish that pain of loneliness, of separation
On the one I love beyond anyone else,
And yet, my heart can never truly pray for your demise
So, I turn to life, letting go of the fears
Willing to enjoy every moment with you
So that when it ends, I have memories and strength
To find solace in.
