Ok yes another Twilight inspired Tate poem from yours truly. However, this could also be Kibbs if you wanted it to be, seeing as there are no names, and both Tony and Gibbs were on the roof with Kate at that fateful moment.

So this poem is set at that very moment when Ari stole the life of a very amazing NCIS character... So at this very moment, Kate has realised she's got a bullet in her head and this is like the whole "time stops and life flashes before your eyes" thing...

Hope you like it, and please review, maybe make a note if you were reading this as Tate or Kibbs so I know where you're coming from...

Enjoy :)


I want to wrap my arms around you
I want to tell you what you never knew
I still have so much to say toyou
I need you to know that I love you

Time seems to have stopped for this moment
And the one thing I long to do
Is to scream out to everyone
To scream out "I love you"

You're standing right near me
I don't want to go
I want to scream and tell you
The one thing you'll never know

I'm so scared, so terrified
Please stay with me now
I want to tell you I love you
But I cannot figure out how

I'm stuck in this second
But I can't change a thing
And when time moves forward
I won't be awakening

I wish I could escape this moment
And have one chance to hold you
One chance to kiss your lips
To tell you I always loved you

I can't do anything but stand here
I feel I could cry
The anguish I suffer would kill me
If I weren't already about to die

Please, can't you hear me calling?
Calling out your name?
I'm telling you I love you
And for this moment you're not to blame

I love you, and the thought of you
Helps me carry on
As I realise with great regret
That I am already gone
