Sarah-Jayne (Aftermath)

As if in my arms

  your head on my breast

A lifetime away

  then together again

Could your heart resume beating?

Will you breathe once again?

 

A lifetime together, never to part

I will never again feel the beat of your heart

I look to your eyes to search for some light

I know you can see me, I know you have life

 

Must I take my own life to touch you again?

To re-join my true love must I vacate this plane?

I must hold your torch high, though I long to be one

I cannot, I will not, believe you are gone.
