Fading Remembrance

I can not escape forever, for I must close the gap between the one I love. I don't want my memories of her distort but can I meet my love outside my memories?

Fading Remembrance

I wonder where my tears have gone…

Did they also fade in my darkness?

Can I still love you until the end of Aeon…?

Why is there a hole, instead of my heart?

My love has leaked again, hasn't it…?

Maybe it was time for our fates to split,

But I refuse, for I still believe that you are the one!

Told myself a lie again, for the love was one sided…

But even now, I still thrive for our reconnection.

We may have been distanced to difference states,

But I will fold our paper fate and bring you closer to me.

For our linked existence, was meant to be.

I want to love you outside my fading remembrance,

But I can’t even remember your voice…

Why am I still chasing a ghost of the past?

I don’t even know how long my heart will last…

Should I be moving ‘past’?

You are so much better than I, 

Is it better for both of us if I just die…?

Dying is not an option, for I have chosen to outlast!

I will never let you fall again!

Back then, I may have faltered…

But now, my way of living has altered.

This time, things are different,

The question is not how long, but when!

I have been bathing far too long in my absence...
