My Heart's Love Slips.

now with plenty of time for evil and plenty left over for some good
you and i were so brave, quietly charging for what we stood
you in my arms is what had made me feel great
and in those now fallen moments of warm embrace
i can still travel and taste what it used to be like
i can still feel the your heartbeat on every cool summer night

neither you nor i
really understood why
we had to try so hard
but even now your heart's not far

your soft lips are in the ground
but your soul's nowhere on earth to be found
your heart is still mine i know
but now i'm forced walk alone
god saw fit to take you away
and i hope he see's enough in me
to take me home to you someday

when you last saw me, you said honey ill be back before you know it.
and when i heard that news i hated everything in the world for a moment
i knew that i had lost you, and i had tried so hard not to show it
but when i heald your hand in mine,i knew you were god's for good
in your last breath of pain you gripped as tight as a dying girl could, 
and in my arms you passed on as i never pictured you would.

as my tears fell upon you
my fairytale lore failed
no waking up from this sleep
my last ship of hope, set sail
i kissed what used to be 
less crimson colored lips
and in the first moment 
of the end of my life
my heart's love slips
its only yours now.
