Kneeling over her grave, getting colder as my empathy inflates,
I feel her hand on my shoulder, though only her memory remains.
Placing some flowers next to the stone that symbolizes her legacy,
is this truly all she expects of me?
A few roses delivered annually?
I wonder what it’s like being trapped in a box, six feet under dirt,
decomposing into food for the insects that salvage mother earth.
The thunder lurks and rain begins to flood around my knees…
my jacket’s getting soaked, it’s so cold that I choke when I breathe.
Now I can smell her lips gloss flavour.. Berry and peach/
Her ghost is present.. I should probably leave /
but deep inside my bones where I can’t reach,
she’s got a hold. I wonder wat the dead Would need.
my fingers wrapped around the rusted handle so firmly they begin to bleed.
I hear her in my soul, “please my love, tell me a story,”
tears stream down my cheek, blended with the rain, conforming…
When we were young and blinded by love,
running away at night to see the lights in the city above.
We made a promise that once I’d grown up…
I’ll come back and save you from the slums.
The memories are there, along with the burdens I bare,
I wasn’t strong enough to protect you from the curses I shared.
Now this armband I wear is the only piece of you I have left,
and my last quest in life involves moving on from past debts.
I couldn’t be there when you needed me the most, I apologize,
but I can no longer wrestle with your ghost if I’m to fight omnicide.
I walk away from her grave, letting go of my mistakes,
the weight on my shoulders fades as I wipe tears from my face.
Though she won’t ever be replaced, I must focus on the human race,
as I battle countless beasts and enemies to save this ruined place.
I hope you can forgive me, thrive in the clouds of your final heaven,
please watch over me while I strive to survive Armageddon.
I pick up my sword when a warmth starts stirring within my veins,..
I see heavens gate
I rather join her since I was unable to fulfill the oath I’d sworn when we were children with faith.
