So this is it, I suppose this is
What we were always headed towards, Well
aware but in so deep I couldn't reach out,
and now it's too late to change,
living the day as it comes and not looking,
our future was doomed, any fool could
Tell but we kept smiling to cover the
Bruises, bury the emotion deep underneath, And
denial everytime they asked, and now it's done.
Finished, completed, put it as you wish, You
made the choice, in the end fate made it instead,
pulling me cruelly and unfairly from your sweet touch,
it was inevitable as it what happens in the end to them all,
and why would you be any different?
I was selfish enough to keep running from the growing
Guilt that would one day catch up to me, Never
letting me forget that I will lose you any day now,
The guilt I feel now is unbearable, but knowing you are safe,
Knowing you still have hope and can live, Even
if it breaks my heart to think about you without me by
Your side, your name will crop up many times in the universe,
And I will have to live and fight another day, but why?
Because I know you wish it.
I fade from your life now, your sobs crush me and you can run
To the familiar arms of a mother, I
am accompanied by nothing but silence,
No one to tell me what to do next, no ones life to ruin,
hope is all I am left clinging to, for if that fades,
so does my life, it's almost not worth carrying on, But
for you I would do the impossible,
Sometime, some place I know I will find you,
even when time catches up and I find myself withering
I will see you again, a huge embrace, and tears stream
because I know it's not the end.
It's only the beginning.
