Faltering Steps

Please stay I cry

But you do not listen

Please don't go I beg

But you keep walking

Please I sob

But you don't look back

I love you I whisper

And you halt your steps

You look at me with those eyes

You close them and turn around once more

You continue to walk away

You continue to leave me

Broken and so alone

I sob as I feel my heart ripping

You never knew what you meant to me

When dawns first light peeks

Into the Valley

There was not a breath

For in that land of death

I lived no more
