Final Promise

I have followed moonlit trails
Looking for you,
But your presence evades me
And I stumble in the darkness
That surrounds me.

How do find someone
Who exist no more?

All this years that passed,
Were wasted
When I could have been with you
Instead of making promises
We couldn’t keep.
Maybe God saw our future
In different places.
I know he was wrong.

Still, God kept me
Away from you.
He left me
Your gravestone
and more sad memories.

I can do nothing if
He didn’t want me to have you.
But...
maybe...
he saved you
From a broken heart.
Maybe God didn’t want you to see me
In the arms of another man.

I knew you wouldn’t break
Our promise.
But you are here no more
And I have to keep on living.

I want to lie down
And sleep forever next to you.
But, I know
You would never forgive me.

I can feel
How your tears wet the world
Crying for the heartless me
you left,
Just like
My tears bath
Your grave stone
And I hug it tight
As if I was hugging you,

And I promise myself,
just like i promised
to come back to you,
to love you until
the scythe comes to
claim my soul.
