Softly Lingering [[collab]]

[[Collab between LiquidSugar and myself, LiquidSugar with the first stanza and me with the second and so on]]

When the sun was going down,
All I wanted was your hand
To hold on to, while I cried myself to sleep
I just wanted to feel your warm hand...

I just wanted to feel your hand
And understand what you feel,
I really wanted to know if
You can help me heal,

But when I looked up to you,
You were feeling the same as I,
I watched the tears roll down
From your precious emerald eyes...

And I felt my heart go out to you,
I longed to bear your burden
But you pushed me so far away
And it was all so sudden!

I never wanted to be torn from you,
I just wanted to hold you and live,
I want to listen and together we'll cry
If only you'll listen and know I'm here...

But I know you'll never listen,
I can feel it in the depths of my heart,
All you'll continue doing
Is tear my reality apart.

I feel the rain fall upon my skin
As I run further towards you, crying,
I couldn't handle the pain of losing you,
I just wish I knew what to do...

And then I fall down to my knees
And the wind whips through the trees...
And you're gone... or maybe you weren't there...
But I can still feel your proud presence,
Softly lingering upon the open air...
