How
How selfless of us to call it sunset,


when the sun does not move.


How strange of us to call it riverbed,


*when rivers do not sleep.
It may not have ever crossed your mind,
or just could be something you ignore.
I'm just glad I can't see your face
when I'm not here any more.
It's not that I don't love your face,
I can't express how much joy it brings.
But on that day I leave your life,
just the thought of it kinda stings.

I'd never hurt you intentionally,
I hope you know this to be true.
If I had one wish it all,
It'd be used to never leave you.
I'd love to give you everything,
there's just some things I can't do;
Live forever, long, or full.
Just to name a few.

You'll do fine, just remember
all the times that we have had.
I helped you become a stronger person.
In fact, it won't be all that bad.
All those times I needed you,
you helped so selflessly.
Just one last thing you'll need to do,
Be brave and don't worry about me.

— The End —
