Last Hug

We hugged for the first time in awhile It had been forever since I had seen your smile The last few months what what we talked about But little did I know time had ran out It wasn't much longer until I again saw you I wanted to hug you, but there was nothing for me to do I touched you cold, pale skin as a tear fell Was the last year just another fairy-tale I looked around at ever crying face I felt so unwanted in that painful place Once again fell another screaming tear I used to feel so safe when you were near I begged for your life to stay But the drugs have taken you away The feelings I felt no one should feel Who should get happiness from a pill You of all people shouldn't have given in Now you have died with so much sin We had a future brighter than all the stars But now I have to live with these painful scars I would have taken your place if I could Or maybe it happened as it should The pain I felt,and feel, will always be here Because in my heart you'll never disappear I still see you lying lifeless in that beautiful room And still hear the words of your future groom No one knows how much a big sister may mean They hold a gift that may go unseen To me you're more than an angel deep inside I don't even care if you ever lied I'll never forget how much you always cared And I'll never forget the last hug we shared Written December 31st, 2001 © on Dec 31 2001 03:14 PM PST   0 • 1
