MY LAST KISS

It's a dark night; we're walking down the street each in the others arms. I see a shadow coming from behind and a shot rings out. I tell you to run as I draw my sword. I never saw them coming from the shadows, but I try my luck against the three but as the first two fall I see a blade coming out through my chest. As I fall I only wish I could see you, and tell you goodbye, to kiss you one last time. Now you see me lying there dead and I watch you for as long as I can. I fought for you, I died for, as so did I live. I know that I will see you again in the perfect place as do you, you'll see me too and we will go on together. Now I'm talking to you even though I know you cant hear me for I don't have a mouth, but I say goodbye anyway. As you cry I'm born and I run down your cheek and as I die on your lips I kiss you. This new life ended as quickly as it began but at least I came back for my last kiss.
