Feelings
Emotions
Lingering still

Taunting
Teasing
Making life hell

Cutting
Bleeding
Another scar for the count

Thinking
Contemplating
Thoughts of death

Waiting
Wanting
When is the end?

Breathing
Sinking
As the water rises

Drowning
Ending
It's finally all over

Then, I return to reality
To find my self searching...
The possibilities.

Darkness enveloped
Yet I still broke through
Never again to slip back
I just keep pushing on
I am strong now
Nothing can bring me down
I am a fighter
I am a winner
I am able to truthfully smile
With out a constant burden
No weight on my shoulders
Now I can breathe freely
But most importantly...
I am me again

My brain stops working
My heart stops beating
My lungs, they stop breathing
I stop hurting
I stop thinking
Finally I stop living

Why can't you see all that you've done?
Those memories... They're all but gone.
You're torn me apart, made my days hell.
Sure you made me come out, but now I'm back in my shell.

Cut by cut
The blood drips down
Pill by pill
My eyelids get heavy
Word by word
You have slowly killed me

But yet.......

I still love you.

Summer was a blast
My deepest desires to bring those times back
With me in your arms
And the sun at our backs

Never wanting to let go
Now I can only look back
Memories are the only thing left of me and you
Can I go into the past?

Now your smiles haunt me
How could they ever make me happy?
When they dig up the past
The thought of a happy ending
Just doesn't seem to be

Now look me in the eyes
Would you believe me if I said...
I love you?

Memories like ashes
Burnt in my mind
So many questions
Left without answers
Time slows down
Leaves me in pieces
I think sad thoughts
Thinking that maybe you could have stayed
If only I held on too tight

I lost all my will
All my will to fight
These memories will be burnt like ashes
In the silence of the dead night
Solitary tears fall
The scars on the outside heal
Yet the ones on the inside cut deeper
The pain is enough
Enough to stop my breathing
During my last breaths
I can't help but think
Maybe you would have stayed
If only I would have held on too tight
