Death is inevitable,
pain is everlasting.
You will never overcome death
pain you cannot escape.
Some fall very slowly,
from the very start to finish;
others fall faster
as though their ties have been cut.
I've lost you let go of you
I could not catch you
as you swirl down farther
out of my screaming reach.
I didnt notice
where you were going,
oblivious to the fact
that you would leave me behind
I know you can't promise me
that one day you'll come back
to relieve the pain
that holds me, binds me close.
One day i know I'll be there
in the darkness above or below
I will stand up
and I will not be alone.
I'll leave the world
the one I know behind,
to travel to a new place
and start all over again.
I'll slowly fade away
into everlasting bliss
and slip away from time
and space.
The years will feel like centuries
the months tick away like a decade
every day of my life will feel like a year
with the hours like the months.
But for now im content
with falling slowly
with a parachute on my back
towards the inevitable...
