at deaths door

when the heart does the talking

and pain does the walking

tis then that the soul

cannot manage to be

when the eyes are all seeing

when you love just one being

thats when it gets to you

thats when you see

you feel weak at the knees

of course you are sighing

flying and crying

dying.      for you

took a heart that was ready

but clearly unsteady

and held it

and loved it

and felt it was true

now you go through the motion

of life there’s no potion

no food  and no breath

for she is your all

she stands by the window

you alright she might say

but you are lost in her

you answered her call

and forever  no way

can you, now forget her

death is the door

you have to go through

for never again can you ever not see her

how could you bear that

one second

one clue

a lifetime as such one last look

and its over

for you have to walk

so brace yourself now

there won’t be another

she has your heart

and with it what she can see

you  can know   how

no need to question it

just grin and bear it

there has never been a love

greater than yours

she may never know that

but what does that matter

you ‘did what you did

for effect why now pause

you are out of her life

she may never think of you

that hurts maybe

but no matter

you know

you loved her

like no other being before you

and thats all that matters
