The water laps at my feet,
As I stand at the edge
Of the lake.
I look out into the water
And I see my own reflection.
My hair flying like a halo around my head,
And my legs covered in mud.
My eyes bloodshot,
My face streaked with dirty tears.
I take a step forward
Into the water
And feel its icy fingertips take me further.
I sink deeper into the dark water,
And wait for the end
Which is sure to come;
The peace and the rest.
My last thought was you,
My last memory
Before my end
Was you smiling at me
As we walked hand in hand
And soon we will once more
Walk like that.
We will soon be together again.
This time I will take your hand and never let go.
I will spend eternity with your big hands holding mine.
In your warm embrace I will stay
And your soft warm eyes
Looking into mine with such love
I will be forever more.
