I can smell your Cologne lingering in the air around me.
But I can't touch you.
I can feel  the sweet touch of your lips against mine.
But I can't respond back.
I can picture you smiling at me, with the twinkle of happiness in your eyes.
But I can't open mine.
I'm here in the darkness but you're my light that keeps my memory going of you.
I can feel myself growing closer to the darkness.
Your scent slowly disappearing.
I hear you calling my name, for me not to leave you.
I can't do anything, I'm floating away, choking on the darkness that surrounds me.


Its been a year now
I visit you often
You've gotten pale from the lack of sunlight
I sit at the edge of your bed
Biting my nails
The tale of us is no more
You lay there motionless
Stale
I kiss your cheek always
Your presence is fading
I whisper in your ear
Waiting for confirmation that your still there
That you haven't left  me
Tell me you still love me
That you'll be home soon
But I can see your deteriorating
I can see your not coming back to me
Can you hear me!
Dont go
Stay with me
But I can see now
Your will is to live on is floating away
I can see you giving up on me
I wanted it to be like the girl is a coma and she's remembering/ hallucinating about the guy she loves, like that's What's keeping her there but the darkness (death) is too strong, maybe
The idea came up by kelsie. - she wanted it to be a combination with me and her so here it is :)

Many have died during the climb
Some gave up
The reward at the top
Simply wasn't worth the time
Some turned away
Knowing this trek wasn't safe

Then there's you

Started this with an excited looked on your face
But I'm one mountain you shouldn't attempt to climb
My snows to thick
One step and you sunk to your knees
Bundle up tight
I got a wicked breeze
Have a fire lit at night
I'm just waiting for the opportunity to give you frost bite
Kiss you with hypothermia
And when you think you'll all safe and clear
Look out for the blizzard
That will whip you off your camp sight
Hopefully you survive
I have one little thing as a last surprise
A rumble you won't forget
I'd even let you see it peaking over the horizon
Trees, rocks and other debris
Let's see if you keep you faith
After the Avalanche awakes

I can take that feeling away
Of you wishing you were never born
I can give you purpose
You know you don't have one
I can give you peace
Excitement
A reason to want to live
Do you want a glamorous life
Do you want power, money and fame
I can take away the shame
That disappointment shackled to your back
I can erase the pain
The heart aches
The embarrassment of others doing better in life then you
I got what you want
You have something I need
But I can't give you all this for free
First there's something you got to give to me
You won't even know it's gone
Like it wasn't ever there
Just sign here
Grant me permission to take something from you
What's a lifetime of happiness
Vs a little soul

Stay in the ravine
Where it's safe and calm

The more you get to the top
The closer you get to the brewing storm

I warn you
Trying to flag you down

It's not safe up here yet
But your willing
Because at the top is me

You'd trek through the soaking rain

Fight through the deafening wind

Hike through the blistering cold

Do whatever it takes
Because my heart is what's at stake

But be careful
Up this high is slick

If you get to close
You just might slip

I'm sorry to say
Me an love have parted ways
It now lays dead in the street
Still sizzling from the cars heat
It tried to stop me from leaving
But I stepped on the acceleration
And all I could hear
Were the gears snapping, bending and breaking
I just sped on by
Not looking in the rear view mirror

An explosion of cherry
Erupted when we kissed
As we embraced each other
My heart raced
And it was just you an me
In this place
In this world
In this universe
But now it lost its taste

Her feelings are sore
Like they've been lifting weights
Because I won't open up more

Well all I have to say is
I was raised to be this way
unintentionally

By a dad who wasn't around to know
And mom was to busy fighting drinking "joe"

I've been here before
Stood in front of this door
The suns out
It's open but inside pitch black
I remembered what happen if I venture inside  
I died
So why am I going inside

She was so excited
It's been awhile since she's been on this kind of ride
Wishing it would last forever
Nervous like she's never done this before
Her palms are sweaty
Insides feel like they've been tied in a knot
All she can do it think of the terrifying drop
She's next
Closes her eyes to gain composer
When she opens them
It's already over
And she's laying on the ground
Still screaming thinking she's ∩dsᴉpǝ poʍu

I apologize as I dry her eyes
And I know that I'll never be enough for her
Two pieces from different puzzles
And I'm still puzzled how I ever found her
Incongruent, I ******* blew it
And I'm still trying to make sense of it all
I laugh, there's no number to call
And she's gone as I continue to fall
