He looks at her <br />As she begins to die <br />He can't take it <br />And begins to cry <br />Cutting, bleeding <br />And desperately needing <br />The blood runs thick <br />And he is dying quick <br />Rather his life than hers <br />She is who they'll miss <br />Not breathing on the ground <br />To her body he is bound <br />He too is fading out <br />'Help' people shout <br />Ambulance comes <br />As his body numbs <br />He sees her there <br />Breathless and cold <br />Barley 16 years old <br />No way to live <br />Is this all she has to give <br />Make it stop <br />All the pain <br />Is driving him insane <br />There's no help <br />It's too late now <br />Everything seems in doubt <br />He wants to die <br />If it shall give her life <br />She's too good <br />Give his life he would <br />If only she knew <br />How she helped him through <br />More than she'll know <br />His body hits the floor <br />He fades away <br />As if the end of a day <br /> <br />(May 11,2005)<br /><br />Shane Abrams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/anyone-but-her/
