Familiar Lullaby

She can't run along anymore, but she tries to remember..

The words hanging on 

Like her heart

For his.

Whispering a familiar lullaby in front of her eyes

        "As you rest your eyes tonight, 

my darling in-vision the moon so bright

lighting the dark and your beauty alike,

I wish I may I wish I might, forever and always

I will hold you tight."

Lingering there, where she least expects it,

The words posses a rhythm carrying her away in their beauty

To a time when they represented her world

"I love you, sweetheart, come with me, 

i'll show you all that you can be

and when you realize what there is to see,

with my hand outstretched i'll pull you free, a diamond in the rough,

eyes sparkling preciously."

Waiting and pacing is all she knows,

While the lullaby drifts off,

Brushing her pale cheek

Sending shivers down her spine,

As it vanishes from her memory

Leaving the sting of tears behind to remind her..

"You cannot follow me in,

as this venom crawls through my skin,

my life is over, I leave you with nothing, 

except a meaningless I love you and a heart broken."

The words hanging on like her heart for his

The sting of tears reminding her of the end.
