I am laying on top of a rocky edge,
I have these flowers in my hand.
I am laying here for the world to see,
I can not got on,
without you here by my side.
We promised,
we would be by each others side,
till the world ends.
Now that you are gone,
I see no more reason to go on,
without you by my side.
I have said all I needed to say.
Now please take me away,
take me away with you,
to the highest mountain,
forever together,
again.

Hm.. the ending was very strong and I liked this wrong.
One suggestion might be not to tell me what your guys love is about, but to show me with metaphors and other dress ups. I was just told.
It was sweet though, thanks for entering.

Hehe. I love your take on the prompt. Not only did you write this well. It appealed to me more because I can relate to this. It is sad and beautiful as well. Thank you so very much for entering and good luck

wonderfully penned; best of luck in the contest

Very nicely done. YOu did a beautiful take on the picture prompt...I assume your are doing option 2 (you should write that in your author's note). But I think it's really pretty. When we lose someone we truly love sometimes we just want to go with them and be with them. Very well done!
