Adieu Mon Amor

By: Marc Mauhay

The endless waves of suffering, never to halt

Unable for you, my dear, to burden too much

The clock striked twelve, you have already breathe your last

No longer, never again can I feel your touch

Gently, you close your eyes, like the sun as it sets

Your once smooth, soft and white skin, now as hard as stone

Why must you go? Why am I to venture alone?

If only I longed for death's visit to postpone

Time can't be undone, the world continues to spin

I know, up above, you're knocking on heaven's door

My last tears for you fall, as your coffin closes

My final words, I say, "Adieu, mon amour”
