I lay a rose
Upon your bed
Of eternal sleep,
I say my prayers
For the dead,
This I want to keep:
Sacred memories,
Forever ours,
Of light and utter bliss,
Oh how I long
For this to be wrong,
And share a final kiss,
Somehow I knew
I couldn't hold on to you,
For it is all the same,
The changing seasons
Go for reasons,
What else am I to say?
My sweet Mai,
Oh how I bay
At your petals black,
They seem to say,
In every way,
I can never have you back,
Tell me please,
How can this be?
An answer, I can't see,
I had some plans
For you and me
That now will never be,
We were to marry,
You were to carry
The children of our love,
You were to show them
The pride and joy
Your parents only snubbed,
I was to be their father,
The father I never knew,
One to give them clemency
For whatever wrong they may do,
Seeing how
As of now
These things will never pass,
I need to know,
What am I to do?
I was supposed to grow old with you,
But that's not going to happen,
No, that can never happen…
