Final Breath

On your dying breath,
your hand slid into mine.
Damaged beyond repair, human and not,
you were losing precious time.

Remember, I was cornered,
soon to be dead.
You rushed in, to my side,
in your arms you cradled my head.

Taking the force of the blow,
aimed at me.
You fell, forceful damage,
as I was still in this world to see.

Laying now in your hospital bed,
there is nothing they can do.
Others, bedded for the night.
I stayed here with you.

Your weak voice croaked my name,
I hugged you to my side.
You tried to speak,
but words, you still had them hide.

You whisper you will love me always,
fading fast away.
I kiss your cheek, still holding.
Found, heaped on your bed the next day.

Starfire came to drag me home.
When all alone, I cry.
Emotions messing up my room,
wondering why you had to die.

My salvation,
the one that knew me best:
Although you were machine, you were my human,
And although I never said it, I'll love you to my final rest.

Wondering why I never said,
what was on my mind.
I guess I was afraid
our love you wouldn't find.

But now that you are gone,
I won't forget.
I'll love you forever,
and tell you yet.
