Escape

(This is the most touching poem I've come across for a good while, so i decided to post it here.)

i was coming to find you
to tell you i was wrong
that you were the one for me

you were drunk and depressed
but it would all be ok
once i found you

the last thing i saw was your car
the blinding headlights
as you came driving
i thought you'd stop
i waited smiling

you didn't stop, you didn't see
as you crashed into me

the last thing i knew
was you stood over my body
not having a clue
hating me forever
not knowing how much i loved u

- S Snigdha

Tell me, Dark Angel

Life's like life,
We'll live it.

Years, perhaps,
We'll give it.

And then,
When we can't anymore,
Then,
When we can once more,
We will.

Only,
Many more than the years
Will be the haunting tears,
And much sweeter than this life
Will be our memories.

So tell me,
Dark angel of my life,
What do we choose?
Memories to live with,
Or a life to die for?
