You listen to all the empty promises that it will all be over soon And tell yourself for the very last time that fairy tale will never come true You’ve waited all your life, tried to give the world your best But now the time is finally here, you will get your peaceful rest A crimson drop, you watch it fall as blade pierces skin Then one by one you lose the sun and darkness closes in You start to panic, just for a moment, worry it’s a hasty thing you’ve done But then your mind reminds your heart that the battle’s already been won Soon fear will loosen it’s grip, you won’t feel the sharp sting of shame The relief you crave is almost here and your past the point of pain Your mother walks in sixty seconds too late, too shocked to even cry With the last of your breath and as your welcome to death, you whisper to her “Goodbye.” -h.n.g
