Close to You

What do I do now?

Your eyes so full of light

Even now they're shining bright

Your smile brightens the sky

If it wasn't all a lie

I said to you "Thank you"

For being with me too

But I never got to say

That I'll be on my way

A little bit of pain

Would at least keep me sane

Although I wished that it

Would turn out differently

The tears kept flowing, not able to do anything, I just let out my screams

Going through a winding maze, a blinding haze, of nothing but those piercing scenes

The words you told me a long time ago are now cutting me apart

Crushing my worthless self and my broken heart

And just like that...

Now I am , standing here, slowly wasting away

I just wanted to be by your side, no need to hide, living though every single day

But now that your voice is gone, yet it still lingers in my mind

Is this the death contract that I just signed?

I'll keep pretending that all of this is a lie...

Amazing.
A situation that happened in my life literally manifested itself out through this poem. It's amazing to read something and picture it in your mind as it happened. Wonderful piece.
