"If you go away on this summer day Then you might as well take the sun away All the birds that flew in a summer sky When our love was new and our hearts were high When the day was young and the night was long And the moon stood still for the nightbird's song If you go away Ne me quitte pas"
If You Go Away (Ne Me Quittes Pas), Rod McKuen

A little sneak peek of the newest chapter of Ne Me Quitte Pas
Tumblr media
"Greetings, Mr. Alastor!"
His hands paused for a second. This voice... he'd recognize it anywhere. He turned around abruptly and finally looked at his overexcited acquaintance and the recently recruited employee.
It was you. His breath got caught up in his chest.
"Salutations," he said softly, his mind still not having caught up with the fact that you were in front of him, alive, "May I ask what your name is?"
You uttered what he had wanted to hear. His eyes could not believe it. After all these years, he was finally able to see you. The very person who'd become his safe haven when he was young, the person who'd comforted him during those dark times- when he ran away from home, when he felt scared and alone, the person who'd given him the pendant he wore religiously around his neck before they left.
"Oliver, " he glanced at the boy, "Do go get them a drink. It is quite unsightly for us to not treat the newest addition to our business."
Despite your protests, Oliver nodded his head and ran out the door, eager to please his boss.
When the door closed shut, Alastor let out the breath he was holding in since he saw your face.
He muttered your name, "Dear, is it really you?"
Your eyes blinked for a few seconds before they scrunched up with your growing smile, "I was wondering if you'd forgotten me, Al."
Also, I'd like to say thank you to everyone who sent in requests! I will get to them once I publish this chapter, I promise!! I apologize for keeping y'all waiting. Thank you for your patience <3
Till then,
Au revoir.

This is such a well written song it touched me so I thought I’d share the lyrics.
Ne Me Quitte Pas
by Jacques Brel
Translated to English by Jamie J. Brunson
Please don’t leave me.
We can forget
Everything can be forgotten
Look, it’s gone already
Forget the times
And the misunderstandings
The lost time
The blows
The hours that robbed our hearts of joy
Don’t leave me (4 times)
I offer you pearls of rain
From places in me where there is no rain
I will raise the earth until the day I die
To cover your body in light and gold
I’ll make a place for us
Where love is king
Love is law
And you are queen.
Please don’t leave me. (4 times)
Don’t leave me
I beg you
Ah! Do you understand my words?
Are they senseless, the words I speak
Of our history?
It is king
It does not have to perish
Just don’t leave me.
How often has the fire of an old volcano
Erupting, burn the land
Then in that place more wheat grows than at harvest.
Each day ends when evening comes
The brilliant night sky is red and black
Can the night be brilliant without both?
Please don’t leave me. (4 times)
I have implored you
With my words
If you leave me, I will unbecome myself
And become the shadow of your shadow
So that I can watch you dance and smile
So that I can hear you sing and laugh
As the shadow of your shadow.
Please don’t leave me.
Please don’t leave me.
Please don’t leave me.
Please don’t leave me.

I forgot years ago I took a longer video.. Context: I was on acid and my cat came in and did this while I had Nina Simone's Ne Me Quitte Pas playing. I had to take a video to prove that he does like to fuck with me when I'm tripping
