And now she is dying in your arms

You've asked, cried with no sleep
When will it happen? I want! I need!
You waited for her and now she is
Dying right in front your knees!
How could it be you are the one
To kill her, suck away the charm
She had, the glow in her eyes
Was there love among the lies?
You'd say I did all my best
To keep the heartbeat in her chest,
To love, to carry but one day
My needs have gained more weight
"My own", "for me", "for my joy"
I trained her to become my toy
To please me when I need and how
Turned to devil suddenly somehow
Her blood is on your hands but
She's not leaving. To be apart
From you is her greatest fear
What is it for you? One tear?
Or not at all? Will you hear
Her last weak heartbeat near?
Her quiet "I love you" she says
Eyes closed forever on her face,
Breath has stopped on those words
Will you feel like a hundred swords
Pierced your flesh at once?
She felt like that million times
When you left her used, alone
Even then she loved, wasn't gone
Even now she loves but her blood
Is cold already, heart has stopped
She can't say but her spirit does:
"I'll be here, my love will last!"
And you stay watching it all ends
Too late to hold and break defence,
Too late to kiss and bring to life
Too late for: "Oh, one day, sometime"
