when you leave I will die
the last few embers of life that I have been clinging onto
will be stomped out
by me
right after I try to not shout or scream
and throw myself at your feet
and cry as loud as you have
every minute of every hour of the last few days
and for some strange reason,
I was thinking of the weather
These rains seem so unpredictable
like the people we have invited into our hearts, you and I
you are the thing that has kept me from running wild
running insane even
and you are the one running away now
how can I hold you back when your dreams have died
mine died and I wanted to die with them
instead I kept those little embers burning
because I knew someone out there loved me
and I knew I had you
to call up at 3 am
and just collapse in your arms
who will I run to now?
and is that even relevant anymore
who will you run to?
when you run away
to a place we can’t follow
and when you get there
you will die
kill yourself
for once the soul dies,
the pain dies with it
simple, clean death
the release from pain
and you’re think you will find it
in a death you will commit
in a place where I can’t stop you
If I ever see your face again
on some forgotten street
and by chance if we meet
will you know me
and more to the point,
will I know you?
you write so beautifully. i’m so sorry for your pain.
thanks gypsy… these bombshells keep falling on my head all of a sudden and I feel so helpless. I wish I can take away the pain of the people I love. It sucks to feel so powerless
i am very familiar with that feeling.
keep yourself safe TMS.

very well done.. i like how simple it is in a strange way..
Sometimes life just seems to suck worse than anything you can ever imagine.
But that’s exactly when you need to hold on tightest to that inner strength.
Hang on to the person you are on the inside
And soon I’m sure your night of sadness and despair will dawn into a lifetime of happiness and strength
Take care
Sometimes it’s just best to let go and party like its 1999! You deserve it, go for it girl! Missing all of you like crazy, especially as it’s the season. I guess things will never be the same again.
Anyone for time travel? I wanna go back.
Loads of love. DD
errr…. well since all that didn’t exactly happen… now what?
