LAST WALK TOGETHER

The moon shines down
Through the withered leaves
That hold on to dried up branches
Awaiting their fall, for Eternity.

We walk down hand in hand
In this quaint light
With hearts heavy with memories.
Those sweet days haunt us.

Can’t the wheel be turned again?
Can’t time change its direction?
Can’t we take a walk again?
Can’t we leave this world forever?

The smell of dried leaves,
Withered flowers and shrunken buds
Fills the air with misery
And reminds us of the ruin.

Our hearts full of broken dreams
Enough for a hundred lifetimes.
Our hopes shattered by the wind
That wrecked our lives.

Is this the end we never wanted?
Is this the nightmare we never dreamed?
Is this the night we never expected?
Is this our last walk together?
