Cold

a man wants to live forever and love forever....

 

Bend the winds

End the drought

I never said I didn’t love

 

Walk to me

Place a rose near my grave

Bid me farewell with a kiss

 

Don’t steal my grace

Flirt with my soul

Heavens I still want more

 

A plethora of heartbreaks

Things wouldn’t work out

Now please smile

 

If you ever cared

Tear open your heart

You might find me there

 

Dance with a ghoul

Sing to my emptiness

I’m starting to warm to my end

 

Hysteria I feel today

In the endless slumber I get astray

Humor my dead heart says

 

Its not long I’ve gone

Don’t say I don’t belong

I’m still here like always

 

Creator I can’t be uncreated

The glory and pain I bled was real

Flatter me not with deep sleep

 

I could not say

When I had my breath

Now I want to live.

Truly impressive.
I find it really hard to come up with short lines that hold a lot of meaning in them. but this piece is exactly one such sample.

Its not long I've gone
Don't say I don't belong
I'm still here like always

I no longer believe in the notion of Forever but this stanza almost makes it real.

My favorite however is the last stanza -
I could not say
When I had my breath
Now I want to live.

I simply loved these lines a lot, though I liked the entire piece of writing but these lines outstands for me!
May be because this is exactly what I feel right now!
I also appreciate the brilliant flow of it, Overall it is a great piece of writing!
