The Last Lines
The fractured night and in the distance
The stars, they shiver, blue
I loved her. Oh, how I loved her
And sometimes, she loved me too
It was on nights like these that I held her
And I kissed her under the stars
Oh, she loved me, she never told me but she loved me
And for a moment I thought the world was ours
I couldn’t keep her, no matter what I couldn't keep her
I did the wrong things, but they don’t matter now
Discontented soul, far away
I could have served you better but I didn’t know how
She made me suffer and I made her suffer
But no more, there’s no need for that now
I don’t know if I love her, but how I loved her
At least as much as she would allow
I hear the night, I hear the silence
Blacker without her, in hours, the minutes pass
And these words, they form in defiance
And lines fall like dew on the grass
Now there’s another’s kisses on her
He’s gazing into those infinite eyes
Love is brief, forgetting lasts so long
These are the last lines that I will write.
