Untiltled
 
I know you really loved me,
But you could not stay,
Because Death knocked at your door,
And made you go away.I am so frightened and alone,
And long to feel your touch,
If only I had realized,
That I loved you, oh, so much.

I long to be with you again,
But how, if I only knew,
I would be at your side,
And I would love you, too.

If only sweet Death,
Would come for me,
I would leave then and there,
My darling don't you see.

I feel my heart beat faster,
As I slowly grab the knife,
And realize there is nothing left,
Here in this cruel life.

The knife edges closer,
Then I grow limp and weak,
And for you, my love,
I no longer seek.
