Right now I thought we'd be driving 'round. You know, living wild and loving happily. But, somehow you're not next to me. Even though I tried to stay good for you and I lied and I did exactly what I promised I'd never do. And now you've gone away. I keep thinking that if you find someone new you'll tell him something cheesy. I look up at the ceiling and keep asking myself 'Do you tell him all the things you used to say to my face?' If you do, well, here's what you told me that one night when you were drunk, anyway:

"If you love me, hold me softly. You're the only one I want. I want you. No one else. You've been the only one to care. I would die for you. I would lie for you. I'd give my life to you. If you love me, hold me softly." Those are the words you used to tell me. And this new guy, if you ever get one, I hope you tell him that. God, I hope you tell him that.

Driving past your house again on my way back from the hospital for the eighth time in three months. I can see your mother and your father and what I think is your silhouette. I remember you asked me one day after I tried to hide myself from you that one day I decided to be pretty. I remember you called out to me, "Is it you, in that flower dress?" God, do you remember all the time when I told you I was scared you'd go away? All the nights we talked and memories now are just seem to be fading to gray? I was drunk as hell, but I remember something I told you when you were leaving me for a few minutes just to get me some water.

"If you love me, hold me softly. You're the only one I want. I want you. No one else. You've been the only one to care. I would die for you. I would lie for you. I would give my life to you. If you love me, hold me softly." Those are the words I told you on that dark and rainy night. I wish I could say it sober. Each time, I look at myself and say "I hope you tell him that."

Now, as I hold you in my arms and your body begins to go colder, I shake my head and hold your face.

"Why don't you see? My love. You're all I need. And wow, you're the part of me I've tried too hard to see. Yeah, I know, maybe I've lost my composure. You were the one that was holding me together. And maybe this wasn't forever, but I can't ignore the proof. It hurts to see someone crying. It hurts me, 'cause it's true. Even now as I'm dying, I'm still in love with you."

Your hand touched my cheek as a small smile spread across your face and your eyes filled with tears.

"I would die for you. I would lie for you. I'd give my life to you. If you love me, baby, hold me softly. I tell you this...So you believe me. I'm still in love with you. Yeah...That's right. And I was a damn fool not to tell you sooner, but I'm still in love with you."

And then, you were gone. Gone. I remember screaming and crying until they pulled me off your dead body. God, I need you back. Please? I love you. I love you. I know I said it too late; we both did. But...Please.

See you in the next one!

Happy Holidays from all the thoughts and ideas inside my head.
