Description This Damn Moment

A Winchester Poem

Beep. Beep.
Listen to the beep.
The beep of your life;
The sound of your heart
as it beats in time with mine.

Here we are again.
Back to the moment
where my heart starts feels of glass
made broken
and your life dangles
from thread.

Have we not done enough?
Have we not given our share?
Have we not sacrificed all
we can spare?

Because he we are again,
back to the moment
where I can't look away
and you aren't okay

You should be alright
You should be laughing
and making gayass jokes.

You should be living again
without threat of death
fear or heartbreak.

These trials, these lies,
they're not worth the risk
Of losing your life
after all this.

Our friends are gone,
lost and dust.
Our family is gone,
long dead and done.

What, do you think
that I'll just live on?
Since when have I ever
given up,
left you alone?

You're my brother
my friend
and I'd never leave you--
here in this moment
with hot nurses around
and the angels run aground?

I could never
ever leave you,
leave you so hurt,
when you're all I have left
and I'm nothing but dirt.

Without you I'm nothing
without you I'm lost;
without you I'm a ghost
of all I once was.

So what you've fucked up
we all have screwed up
us more than most
you're all that's good
all that I need
and everything this world
can offer to me

Here were are again,
back to this moment;
where you're silent and alone
and leaving without me.

We promised we wouldn't
but I might just lie
and break that promise
just this one time.

Because I can't live without you,
stupid brother of mine.
And we're real good
at fucking up for
the sake of our lives.

I thought it was over,
I thought it was done
But nothing ever is.
Were we stupid to try?

You'd say I was foolish,
You'd say I was dumb
You'd say that it was all for
the greater good.

Because it was all worth it to you
the sickness, the hurt
all for mankind
when it's done nothing for you.

That's why you're great,
that's why you can't go
without you this world
is worth less that the
tears on my face
and the gun in my coat.

The bed doesn't look
comfy, why don't you wake up?
Grab a beer, have a laugh
watch chick-flick movies
until we fall asleep on a
crappy motel couch.

It'll be real nice
I'll even let you drive.
You won't have to fight
the monsters and demons,
the creatures of the night

It'll be what you want,
what you have deserved.
I promise I'll do it too,
if you just open your eyes,
Sammy, and give me a smile.

My brother, best friend
you son of a bitch.
Don't you dare die.
I'll do my best here,
but you have to try.
