Satine-

I held you in my arms,

Your face paler from the light.

I tried to revive your endless charms,

But you told me it's alright.

"You've got to let me go," you said,

But I couldn't put you down.

You were taken to the site of the dead,

And the feelings wouldn't drown.

The elixir wasn't in my tears,

The strength wasn't in my veins.

I couldn't conquer any fears,

I couldn't hold on to the reigns.

The theif who stole my only love,

I can never come to forgive.

For when he took you up above,

I didn't know how to live.

I love you, Satine, my angel,

My life, and my dove.

The knot in my heart cannot untangle,

For that's where you left your love.

I feel your hands caress my cheek,

And I know you're with me now.

I find myself unable to speak,

But I just keep thinking, "How?"

I hear your lips of rose talk,

And my mind gives in to my wants.

I feel that I can barely walk,

And me, your presence forever haunts.

I feel you soft, gentle kiss,

And now I see you clear.

For I followed you through the abyss

Of my single, lonely tear.

Satine…You're with me…Because I'm with you…
