Stand Beside You (working title)

You know I want you
You know I need you
Where do we go from here now
Stuck in this hole that we dug for each other

We're dancing on this hallowed ground
Gone for years now can't you see
Our tombstones the one you see inside your dreams love

I want an answer
Who would it be the one you love
Who stands beside you now

I want you to be free
I want you to remember me
The way it was before I died
The whispers of this lovely night

Have a drink, sit next to me
Listen to the tales we speak
Remember all the times we used to dream

Who would it be this one you love
I see him dance inside your eyes
Who is this one
Who stands beside you now

Who sees, you lovely
Just as long as you remember me
We dance on this single night
We sing until the morning light

Who sees...you lovely
Please don't ever forget me
I want to be the one you love...
But I understand now our dance is done...

Author notes

So Halloween is my all time favorite holiday. Now I don't say that to be weird or strange or anything like that, it just is. It is the one day out of the ENTIRE year that I let myself be a kid again. So I figured I'd write a song dedicated to this holiday and a very special friend I met on that day.

    This is so sweet ( I mean after I read your author note too). Halloween is actually one of my favorite holidays too ( I think we should get paid for them just like any other religious holiday ) Your poem is magnificent! It's chilling in a stalker kind of sense, but the heart is there which makes it sweet too in a creepy kind of way.
    I totally enjoyed this! Thank you so much for entering

    Excellent

    I am a christmas person myself. I don't celebrated it but I love it as a season.

    That poem is awesome. I loved it.

    "I want to be the one you love...
    But I understand now our dance is done..."

    This was THE perfect end.

    Best of luck in the contest
