I finally let you go as the presence
of your heart fades from my grasp
The realm of everything hits me,
And I know I won't be able to last
Secretly knowing I won't be here much longer
I'll just be a victim of your past
The depth of my soul has no boundries.
Soon I will be gone
Away from this world forever
Never knowing where I went wrong.
Why does everything hurt so bad?
Why can't I stop crying?
It's a cold-hearted mindless boy
Who can't seem to stop lying.
I can finally attest to my surroundings
Before, I could barley breath
Simply holding on to what I thought we had.
Waiting for my chance to leave
As I grab the knife, I think of you
Then I put it to my arm.
Saying to myself, "This is what
You did to me inside". "But now
you can't do me any harm".
The blood flows down my wrist
As I start to feel weak.
"God, Your the only one who can
Judge me now".
"Your forgiveness is what I seek."
I fall to the ground, a puddle
of blood beside me.
No pain in my heart anymore.
The past is finally behind me.
