Goodbye, My Demon

Why are you crying?

I am still here.

Don't you see me?

I'm shedding no tears.

Once I held your head

As you lay there, sleeping

Now you hold my hand

As I stand here, dying

Gods, why have you

Done this to me? I

Wanted to stay by

His side forever...

But now I am going

To leave him to this

Dark world of blood

And despair...

My beautiful Demon

Cold and uncaring but

Still a kind heart, my

Demon of contradictions

I hope you know, I

Would have stayed

Had I been able to

You were always alone...

It's darker now...

The lights are fading

Clouds have come out

And it's started raining

Rain and tears mix

Staining the world red

Even though I'll be alive

I know, to you, I'll be dead

So now, my Demon,

I must say goodbye

And leave for some reason

I will see you again

And we'll stay together

Through rhyme and reason
