The End

Alone I stand in the dark of night
Staring at a slab of stone
Moonlight dancing around the trees silhouettes
The wind with a soft low moan

Alone in person, surrounded mentally
I can never escape my thoughts
You play on my mind from dusk till dawn
Why was our life together cut short

I've seen you stand in this exact same spot
May nights before me
Always in black, tears staining your cheeks
Knowing this wasn't supposed to be

I remember the pain on that eventful day
And seeing the sadness in your eyes
Even when I think of it now
All I wish I could do is cry

I can't no more, my weakness is gone
I am now a guardian of the night
You will never see me but I'm always here
Guarding my love, my light

I stare at the stone that brings you here
I bend down and sweep a leaf from my name
My tombstone is a sign of the end of my life
Even though I'm alive, they way is not the same

With a final glance at my floral soaked tomb
I turn and walk away
I know you will be here again tomorrow
And I will be guarding you every single day

Another nice poem but very lacking in correct punctuation. " moonlight dancing around the trees silhouettes" the silhouettes belonging to the trees therefore " trees' ".
