Red Carpet

It stretches far and haunting,
this long road laid only for me....
I lie here smiling and surrendering,
to this day,it broght me close to time....

The red wine that once formed my life...
Ran across my being and was only for you!
Why did i not see the words which formed the sharpest knife.....
and when i did it had stabbed me through..

Not a whine when the dagger pierced my heart,
and neither a sigh when this carpet started its voyage..
Pain i knew not, with a smile would have taken this dart!
Only once you needed to ask and this very bearth would not be mine!!!

My wish still granted as I breathe my last,
for its a boon that your name helped me perish!!
Like a shadow i shall always thus cast...
thus to guard you from the many pain and anguish!!!!
