Six Feet


Finally, im done with something that i started a loooong time back. I sometimes wonder why i even care posting stuff here, especially since no one ever reads it...but then again, i guess its better this way? This makes it a sort of a personal diary diary, that anyone else can have a look, whenever they like! ...

I am rather proud of this one, probably because i believe that this is the finest one thus far, also, this poem is a personal one...

Angel, You look so pretty when you cry
I'd hold you close while you whispered why
But the six feet between us tore me apart
I know when I left, I took your heart
Hand in hand next to a hospital bed
I was saying sorry for each tear you shed
There was a moment when there was not a sound
And suddenly you were the loneliest girl around

Is there a right way to die?
Is there an easy way to say goodbye?
My heart stopped, You cried through the night
Knowing you'd never again hold me tight
Six feet under where the roses bloom
I'm lying, drowning in sweet perfume
Six feet above where the sky is blue
You're crying about how I left you
Six feet between where we would lie
Look up to where the angels cry
Six feet between the love I gave
I'm just another angel you couldn't save

Now I'm gone and there's nothing left to say
You're just hoping this sorrow will wash away
These feelings have taken their toll on you
Listen up because this coffin isn't made for two
Please don't cry, I promise this isn't the end
This isn't the part where the angels descend
I'm speaking honestly, With my heart in my hand
Lay me in your memories, Like we always planned



You're choking back the words I never knew
If I said them loud enough, Could I save you?
They echo off these walls, but they are ignored
The sun doesn't shine, The rain has poured
I'm breaking for one more second with you
You're choking back the words I never knew
(Could I have saved you?)

Is there a right way to die?
Is there an easy way to say goodbye?
My heart stopped, You cried through the night
Knowing you'd never again hold me tight
Six feet under where the roses bloom
I'm lying, drowning in sweet perfume
Six feet above where the sky is blue
You're crying about how I left you
Six feet between where we would lie
Look up to where the angels cry
Six feet between the love I gave
I'm just another angel you couldn't save
I promised to never leave your side
I'm still here, There's no reason to hide
Could I have saved you
with what we never knew?
