Lovers tragedy

He sits there in the hospital
Awaiting his lovers wake
He doesn’t know if it will happen
But he stays there for her sake

He sits there night and day
Waiting for her eyes
He sits there day and night
And every night he cries

Finally comes the day
When his heart can’t take no more
He stands from his seat
And walks out the door

The house he enters is quiet
The house he enters is empty
No ones been there
Since the tragedy

He does the dishes
And watches T.V
He takes out the rubbish
And he makes himself tea

While he does this
She’s still in his head
He then he gets a phone call
It’s doctor saying she’s dead

It hit him like
A ton of bricks
He falls to the floor
He feels so sick

He thinks of his love
But can only remember the hospital bed
He thinks of his love
And remembers what she said

The day I die
Do me one favour
Take out the box I told
I told you to savour

He took out the box
And dusted it off
It had letters and photos
And a pair of old socks

He looked through the box
Wanting an answer
He emptied the box and got
What he was after

The bottom of the box
Had a little pink note
He picked it out and
Read what she had carefully wrote

This is a box of memories
In this box
Is how I want you to remember me

With that he packed up the box
He was feeling complete
Even though his love had passed
He feels like he never left the seat
