that night i dreamed

your face was so clear

your stare pulled me in

your touch felt so real

but i had to remind myself that this was just a dream

"brionne... it's me."

my imagination has fooled me many times

but this time i knew

that the voice calling out to me

was really my awakened love, clarke

"clarke... you're back."

i embraced him as tight as ever

a promised that we won't be apart, never

we will stay by each other's side forever

and we'll walk this cruel world together

"i'm here to say goodbye."

he said, staring right through my eyes

and he was giving up the fight

i stepped back and looked afraid

hurt, disappointed, shocked─ betrayed

"so all those times, i've been waiting for nothing?"

how dare he make me wait

and suddenly come back

for him just to leave again

but this time, permanently?

"i love you..."

i couldn't deny that he was sincere

i could see from the tears on his eyes

and his shaking hands, trying to hold mine

"but i need to go."

his lips met mine

so soft and so genuine

i savored it as much as i could

saving each feel to memory

because i know this is the last time

it took one look─

one last look

then you were gone from my sight

never to be seen again

oh, such painful goodbye

"i love you..."

no one was there

but i knew he would hear

although he could never reply

"and i'll keep holding onto this love 'till the day i also die."

that night i woke up

from a dream so real

but i knew when tomorrow comes

i'd have to accept

that the love that i had, has already left
