Shallow breaths,
Lifeless brain,
Warm tears,
Come in through the doors with your heart in your throat.
But leaving with wings, and a white light.
Why even bother with Exit doors?
The ones meant to stay always have to go.
Down a time line,
I need you more than I did then.
As soon as the walls are replaced,
Wreck my world and knock them down.
Leave me with my selfish thoughts but promise me one day,
Somehow you will see me again.
Don't drop your petals and keep the thorns.
Stay, stay with me a little longer is all I ask.
Fight a little longer.
Impossible if you're already gone.
Leaving me bitter and needing you more.
Selfish thoughts I'm ashamed.
How could I keep you from you fate.
