Dear *****,
These words I regret to send,
Without them I fear my end,
You're always with me in troubled times,
Without you I can’t write these heartfelt rhymes,
You’re 80 proof positive I have a problem,
Though, the more I seek you the less you’ll solve ‘em,
Without you in my life I cry,
With you I know I’ll surely die,
I know I’ll miss your warm embrace,
Please leave my life without a trace,
You've taken so much without return
This position you did not earn,
You entered my world with love lost,
Though your presence here is at a cost,
It’s morning now once again,
Oh how I wish I could abstain,
This whole night long all I think,
Is how I need just one last drink

"Don't do it!"
I scream,
As tears fall from my face,
I know I should run,
But my feet stay in place.

In that pale moonlight,
She stands on the edge,
Hurtful words fill her head,
From he so called "friends".

I just can't let her do this,
I can't let her fall,
She said it's the only way,
To escape from it all.

From the pointing and laughing,
The secrets and lies;
That's the reason she's here,
The reason she cries.

She needed a friend,
That's why I'm here,
As she whispers goodbyes,
I slowly draw near.

I grab her arm,
I pull her away,
Away from the edge,
I need her to stay.
