Heather Rhoden - Begging

I am running out of time.
Please hold me close.
Please hold me tight.
Never let me go.

I'm losing my breath.
Please don't let my heartbeat fade.
Please don't let me go with Death.
Keep it at bay.

My screams are ringing in my ears.
Please make them silent.
Please chase away all my fears.
Get rid of the tears I'm crying.

My thoughts are choking.
Please help me out of this.
Please don't leave me so broken.
And end this terrible mess.

I am fading.
Please don't let go of my hand.
Please don't let me be taken
By something you'll never understand.

I am flying away.
Please don't forget what we used to be.
Please forgive me for not being able to stay.
Always remember me.
