See my hands trembling, put yours in them.
Feel my body shaking, wrap me in your arms.
Watch me walk away, as I slowly turn my head back.
Come to me.
Look into my eyes, see the tears as they well up then fall.
Touch my skin, scard and bruised from time.
Hold me up as I fall into the earth.
Come with me.
Break my heart, as you've done many times before.
Kill my soul, when you leave me behind.
Walk away from me now, don't even look back.
Go into the darkness...
Fade...
And I wont see you anymore....

This change in the middle of this was quite surprising. Particularly in view of the title of the poem. Instead of 'come ', it is actually ' go.' I'm sure there must be a good reason for this but I can't think of one. There are much better ways to do this in poetry. Curious. GW62
