I’ll hold your hand long after a pulse no longer runs through it
Till the cold of the wind matches the feel of your skin
I’ll look into your eyes far after they’ve closed
Till the day I’m sure they’ll never look back
I’ll whisper soft things in your ear knowing you cannot hear
Till my voice cracks much like my soul
I’ll stay close to your loving heart long after it does not beat
Till the day my heart can let go
I’ll stand by your side far after you cannot stand by mine
Till my knees buckle to your tragedy
I’ll kiss your lips even after a breath no longer grazes them
Till the day they fail to take my breath away
Because I’ll be there for you
Till you are no longer there, yourself
And when I underestimate the worst
I’ll be there, praying for the best
When you can no longer hear, touch or see me
You’ll always hear my prayers for you
You’ll never cease to touch my soul
You’ll always see my hearts desire
Until forever becomes the present
And the future is not to come
I promise you I’ll meet you
I’ll wait for you at heavens gates
When death hugs us with choking arms
I’ll smile and say that this is what I’ve waited for
I’ll hold your hand long after a pulse no longer runs through it
Till the cold of the wind matches the feel of your skin
