Who do you have to live for, if not yourself?
Before, we were everything
Then we were nothing
Can we be something once more?
How much more
Do I have to sigh?
How many more tears
Do I need to cry?
How much longer
Do I need to try?
When will you see
That I’m so unhappy?
Let me fly
Or let me die.
Final goodbye.
Unconscious leaked
All that was hidden
No longer forbidden
My scarlet letter
Torn open
For all to read
Brought to the surface
Floating above
A crack in the mask of reality
The true me.
Started from nothing
Slowly, steady,
Gaining size, strength, and height.
Powerfully Surging
Quickly to the shore.

Dare to take a ride
And your fall is assured.
Lost beneath the Surface
Stuck in the Current
Unable to move forward.
Up is Unknown.
Hold your breath
Find your way
Or forever you will Remain
Lost and Alone.

It Reaches the shore
Pushes hard and fast.
Breaks the sand and air
With ease.

Mission complete.
Recollecting,
Pulling,
And Retreating.
Promise of Return.
Every step gets heavier,
Breaths shorter,
As my eyes begin to gloss over,
I fall to the floor.

Facing the sky,
Above me I see darkness creeping down,
And a final star--a shooting star.

As one last tear rolls down my face
Touching the earth,
I wish my final wish:
To have the strength to get up and have the courage to try and keep going.

But the pain takes over
And it’s too late and I realize I’m done.
This is it, this is the end.

I love you.
My heart finally stops.
I breathe in and breathe out my final goodbye.
Cause of death?
A broken heart.
My Romeo
Forget the world
Let’s run off
Just you and me.
Nothing else do we need.
Scarlet letter no more
I’m free.

Follow me
Let’s live happily ever after
With one another.
Bonnie and Clyde.
I’m here
Ride or die
Yet we shall live
Our journey traveling.

No more sadness
Only love and joy.
I don’t want anything else
Just you.

No, seriously
You misunderstood
Underestimated me.
You couldn’t truly see
My insane need and want for you
Oh so everlasting and deep.

Let’s continue on
Love will provide
Faith will guide.
Romeo, please
Let’s run off
Just you and me.
