Work Text:
In the End, I knew you’d be beside me.
I knew you’d always be there.
Right at my side when the end we could see.
In the End, I knew you would always care
Enough to stay and not leave,
Telling me more than words with a piercing stare.
In the End, I knew better than to grieve,
Living, for however long,
As were still together in death’s eve.
In the End, I knew you’d sing our swan song,
Harmonies of love and pain,
Angel words to herald the final gong.
In the End, as we lay broken and slain,
You are my last thought in my blood, heart and brain.
