Stay

Stay and wait through the rain
The cold chill entering my veins

Longing for days of summer sun
The days when you and I were one

I sit here now my head bowed down, my eyes shut tight
as I listen to the haunting night

A black bird comes to perch beside 
my corpse which once was so alive
 and full of love 
and full of laughter 

has now slipped into the ever after

the night retreating ever faster, faster, faster.
