This poem is inspired by the "love scene" sequence. Please read and review! Thanks to everyone who has left their comments about my other fics! Love you all.

Clinging to a Memory

A gentle hand of a stranger
The promise of a friend,
A moment of something wonderful
Before the dark and bitter end.

Will I make it till tomorrow?
Will I see the joy of day?
Will I live long enough
To see you return for me someday?

I beg you, don't go
You won't make it out anyway,
Please stay here and share with me
The last moments of today.

Your light is fading fast
I can see it in your eyes.
I want to believe we will make it
But your certainties, I know, are lies.

A gentle hand of a stranger
The promise of a friend,
A moment of something wonderful
Before the dark and bitter end.
