sleep goes then sleep comes
what should we do
sleep and never wake up?
or stay awake and fear death--

Here I am to choose
I'm ready to leave at anytime
but I don't want to leave you behind
....

So here I am staying awake
for one last minute
waiting for you to show

seems as if I don't matter to you
I am here alone
to lay my sleepy head to rest forever

Only seconds left and then you show
entering the room to say goodbye
as tears swell up in my eyes
falling down my face

One last moment together
Here it comes
Sleep forever
Last words were said from my lips
"I love you forever and always"
Well this was an idea of dying I guess for the last one heh anyway it has been a while sence I have submitted a poem but here is one ..finnaly XD

This reminds me of Emily Dickinson's "I heard a fly buzz when I died." They're not that much alike but the tone and the subject is the same. It's a great poem John. You always find a way to really make the emotion of the poem stick out.
