Choking and gasping,
and fighting for air.
I'm drowning in sorrow,
but to weak to care.
I fall to my knees,
and I start to dry-heave.
These tears stream my cheeks,
making it hard to see.
I fall on all fours,
and I roll to my side.
This pain is unreal,
tearing apart my insides.
I welcome the pain,
as my life starts to fade.
A life not worth saving,
to many mistakes have been made.
A debt now collected,
there is no blinding light.
It's becoming so hot,
and there's fire in sight.
I don't think I deserve this,
but then again who would?
A life full of regrets,
doing what I thought I should.
The pain it cuts through me,
but I find I can stand,
and a tall hooded figure,
takes me by the hand.
I look over my shoulder,
and see myself on the ground.
These tears burn my face,
but I don't make a sound.
He leads me away,
through the fire and flames.
The fire doesn't burn me,
but it hurts all the same.
I think back to that day,
and the deal that I made.
One day seemed so short,
for the price to be paid.
But then I think back,
to your beautiful smile.
Your pretty blue eyes,
and it all seems worthwhile.
You were mine once again,
if only for a day,
and it was worth every second,
no matter what price I pay.
So I’ll burn for eternity,
for this ultimate sin,
and if given the choice,
I would do it again...
