Huh, it doesn't even feel real right now;

Trapped in my sea of memories, I drift;

The boat rocks and I fall over the bow;

As I drown in my own mind; is this it?

Time has nearly lost all of its meaning;

The moment I met you, everything slowed;

Off your great grace, my heart has been weaning,

But all in vain, for love has only growed

Avoiding all that drives me to wallow,

I thought this chapter's ending would come quick,

But it still persists, unending sorrow;

Soon you'll be gone, like an old candlewick:

I can't dream of a world without you,

But it's best I let go: Start life anew.
