Watching me die

I fell to my knees with one painful gasp,
as she drove the knife into my back
I lay, feeling the thud of footsteps on stone
as you ran toward the scene of attack

my blood on your hands and on the ground
a moan stifled as you lift me to your knee
everything is going so black and so cold
"just leave me" I'm begging "I don't want you to see"

Time passes, I don't feel a thing anymore,
all I see is the moon hanging in the dark,
and the parting in your lips, falling tears,
and the rush of the wind through the park.

you lean down, one last kiss, clasp me tightly,
I hear your words "I'm sorry, I love you, please don't go"
but I cant answer anymore, I am fading,
I try not to show it, but I think that you know.

Now my eyes are slowly closing shut
and my hand is slipping as you begin crying
I use my last breath just to whisper
"I love you, please don't watch me dying"
