Good Bye

I hope you understand, my love,
But this is not to be.
My love for you is less than that
Which holds for family.

I know you will be fit to kill,
When you hear of my lies.
But please believe my love is true,
My heart still wants to cry.

You hurt those that I swore to save,
And though it breaks my heart.
I cannot let you hurt them more,
It was the way from start.

So here I write this one last note,
To tell you how I feel.
For I will leave this blasted world,
Go heavenwards to heal.

I do not wish to hurt you so,
You are the man I need.
But know this kills me inside too,
As you sit and read.

I mourn the day that I was born,
I wish I never knew.
A love with you is what I had,
A love too short and few.

I have here knife to kill myself,
Though I am sure you smell.
The blood that writes this note to you,
I doubt you need me tell.

Please do not mourn my death at all,
I know you never said,
But in my heart I swear I heard,
'You love me' in my head.

So live thy peace these hundred years,
I shall come back to you.
You live as vampire to these lands,
As mortal as I do.

I tell you one last time tonight,
And for eternity.
You are the one I love, my dear,
You are the one for me.
