Your Last Lullaby.

• Artist: ViciousPacifist
• Description: I got him back that night. He sang me a song, I still remember the words. He sang softly, and his voice was lovely. It carried throughout the room and echoed in my head. My eyes felt heavy, and it hurt to keep them open. Slowly, I let my eyelids close and drifted off into a deep sleep and had the sweetest dream of my life.
  My dream was that you never left me.

Sing me a lullaby.
Until I fall asleep tonight.
Make it sad
Make it happy
I just want to hear you gentle voice.
Carry me off
Into a deep sleep
Where I can dream
Of a better place
Where everything is happy.
I lost you once
And now I have you back
But why do I still feel empty?
And now I’m lost
With you, like I was lost without you.
I don’t understand
Why I feel this way
Nothing really matters.
Could you please tell me why
I’m worse then I was before?
Your answers to my questions
Have only made me more curious
Given me more questions
About this chaotic life.
What will become of mine?
When I grow old
Who will I be?
Will you be by my side
Giving me advice
Like always?
Or will you be lost
To me again,
Will I die lonely?
When I die
Will anybody even notice?
What if I
Were to die right now?
Who would cry,
Who would come to my funeral?
Would anybody even care?

I like the meter in your poem and the way it flows. It was a bit straightforward and not the most original poem but very emotional to me. 4/5
