The other side of that
I remember a thousand years ago,
A smile and a whispered “Hello”
When you came up to me for a chance
And asked me to dance
I remember shoulder length hair,
And blue eyes so bright, with skin so fair
But it was a dare from friends
And you quickly made amends
It meant more to me and nothing less
When one smiles and says “yes”
And I remember how it played out
A slow dance and a kiss, I wouldn’t doubt
But one night, so long ago
Is much to ask not to let go
But we went about our way
And I should have asked you to stay
To be enamored, by a plot
And your name, I simply forgot
And I will no longer take any chance
When a beautiful woman, asks for a dance
I never thought I would be on the
Other side of that
Why?
Everything I do is to forget that I'm dying.
I can never forget! So, what's the point of even trying.
Now, I'm crying on the outside too.
I can't deny it,
For a long time, I've been lying to you.
I can't abide it.
So much beauty in the world you say.
My mortality is turning all these colours to grey.
I've had enough,
Why on earth can't you just let me go today.
I do want to stay..
Only if I can actually stay,
But I can't.
I'm definitely going to die one day.
