"if you jump, i jump. i will never leave you behind."
he says.
those words were the last few words he told me.
and i'm here, saying sorry.
dear you,
i'm sorry for not jumping with you.
i was supposed to
and i didn't stop you.
i swear it was nothing intentional,
i loved you with all my heart,
and i will never forget you.
but that's the thing,
you came in first
and i was supposed to, second.
but i didn't.
because i was scared.
scared of falling
without you
you let go of my hand
as you fell from the ledge
of a rooftop of a small town.
a small town with the dark night gazing on top,
and the stars twinkling above.
i watched you fall
with my own eyes
as tears form around them
i regret everything.
"how could i find someone like you, now that you're gone?"
i say.
rain splattered down my hair
as i look down the pale body down the streets below
people were looking up
and i vanished away.
i didn't jump.
no, i didn't save you.
i didn't stop you.
i was there with my own eyes,
looking at you fall.
and i didn't do anything,
and i was blamed for everything.
you know i will always love you.
you know i should have stopped you.
i will never forget you,
and remember, i will always be there for you.
