If This Is The End Of Us…

If this is the end of us

hold me one last time.

Tell me about your day

and leave me something to remember,

to look back on it all fondly,

to say your name softly.

Hold me one last time 

if this is the end.

I’ll be okay after this,

but before I leave I need your touch

to keep in my heart forever.

If this is the end of us,

I’ll love you forever.

Pictures in books I never touch,

and boxes of gifts under beds

afraid to feel the heartbreak 

when there’s still love in my chest.

Your side of the bed is cold

and it stills holds your shape.

This is the end of us

and it’s worse than I imagined.

I know that I’ll pull through.

I’ve done it time and time before,

but I have never felt a love

that hurts me quite like this.

If this is really the end of us

call me one last time,

tell me about your day,

I’ll tell you about mine.

We’ll swap inside jokes

one last time.

If this is the end of us,

I’m glad that you were mine.
