You Left Me
Why have you left me, staring into your empty eyes
You were taken from me, forcefully yet silently, no screams
You said it didn't hurt, when I tried to take your pain
I asked you not to leave, I begged you
You said it was ok, it was perfect
You were dying in my arms, your first love
The one you would always love
You held my gaze, determined
You asked me to tell your father something
But then you heaved a breath
And didn't breathe again
Your hand fell to the ground, with graceful finality
I heard Lydia's scream, just minutes ago
Knew it was over
But still held you to me, clutched you to my heart
Trying to get yours to beat again
Listening to my sobs consume me
Heard Argent run to the gate, and stop dead
Mouth open in disbelief, in shock, in anger
Saw him turn away, unable to face her
His family was gone, decimated
It was all my fault, I had killed them all, one by one
And now, it was her turn, my huntress, gone forever
My anchor, my love, my warrior-in-arms, my pack mate
Everyone has lost someone tonight
A friend, a lover, a hunter, a daughter, a goddess
My goddess is gone
